The Center for Child and Family Policy at Duke University is bridging the gap between research and public policy to improve the lives of children and families.  The Center, established in 1999, is addressing:

• issues of early childhood adversity;  
• education policy reform; and
• youth violence and problem behaviors. 

To attain its mission, the Center is focused on research, teaching, policy engagement, practical applications and service.
