Family Research

The Family Resource Center (FRC) is invested in conducting research to inform prevention and intervention services and improve the lives of children and families.

Current Projects

Currently, the FRC is engaged in several research projects related to:

children's experiences of hospitalization
parents' and siblings' experiences of the death of a child
birthing person's wellbeing in pregnancy and the postpartum period
families' access to parenting leave
role of social policy context in shaping family wellbeing

If you'd like to get involved in family research, please contact Dr. Amy Claridge.
