Abstract
⺠Core domains of child security, protection, and well-being are interrelated. ⺠In Rwanda, community cohesion, poverty, and caregiver loss have cross-cutting effects on other domains of well-being. ⺠Threats to security force children and families to adopt unsafe survival strategies that increase risk. ⺠The SAFE model of child protection is useful for analyzing the interrelatedness of security threats and survival strategies.
