Mission Statement
The mission of Child and Family Studies is to improve the lives of all children and families by strengthening communities and building strong connections across research, policy, and practice. We strive to prepare Child and Family Studies professionals for an increasingly diverse society by providing a range of experiences and opportunities that support their understanding of child and family development within context.
