Early Childhood
We are dedicated to cutting-edge research into issues that affect children and families, and regularly submit proposals to both increase and enrich its research activities. As part of proposal development and implementation, our research provides opportunities to increase dialogue among existing and new partners and to create cross-disciplinary collaborations. As a result, we are able to identify, analyze and implement solutions to address issues facing children and families.
