Center for Children, Families and Communities

The goal of the Center for Children, Families and Communities (CCFC) is to improve the well-being of children and families, with a special focus on reducing health disparities. The CCFC accomplishes this goal through innovative research, out-of-classroom experiential learning, and consultation and support for community partners.
