Family Strengthening Research: FY 2019

This report describes the major research investments of our Division of Family Strengthening through Fiscal Year 2019. This division has primary responsibility for research and evaluation projects related to healthy relationships, parenting, youth transitions to adulthood, and community connections. OPRE’s research in the area of family strengthening includes mothers, fathers, couples, families, children, and youth.

This report presents the research organized into six different sections, showing the breadth of our family strengthening research. These sections include:

• Supporting Fatherhood
• Strengthening Relationships
• Home Visiting: Nurturing Children Through Families
• Supporting Positive Youth Development And Transitions to Adulthood
• Preventing Family Violence
• Other and Cross-Cutting Research

OPRE published the Strengthening Family Research report to describe the research in these areas sponsored by OPRE during the previous Fiscal Year.
