The Collaborative is an initiative with the purpose of strengthening ties among service agencies and was new when the COVID-19 shutdowns began.</p><p><strong>Design and participants: </strong>In September 2020, we surveyed 62 agencies working on childhood maltreatment prevention in the public health, health, or social service sectors.
