She is also the founder and director of the Child and Family Research Partnership (CFRP), a group that conducts rigorous research on policy issues related to young children, adolescents and their parents. She most recently launched the new national Prenatal-to-Three Policy Impact Center at CFRP, specializing in evidence-informed state policies that strengthen outcomes for infants and toddlers.

Her teaching and research interests include social policy issues, poverty and inequality, family and child well-being, early childhood, fatherhood and family demography.
Talk Title: Effective State-Level Policies to Strengthen the Prenatal-to-3 Period
Description:
State policy leaders are increasingly convinced by the science of the developing child that investing in the prenatal-to-age-3 period is important. However, they are less certain about what the most effective policies are to reach their goals of ensuring children are born healthy, their parents have the skills and resources they need, and that when infants and toddlers are not with their parents they are in high quality care. The Prenatal-to-3 Policy Impact Center at UT Austin’s LBJ School of Public Affairs aims to be a resource for state leaders as they develop and implement policies to strengthen the prenatal-to-3 system of care. This center conducts comprehensive reviews to determine the strength of the evidence of effectiveness of social policies. It creates a clearinghouse for academics and state leaders to use to identify which policies are most effective as well as the gaps in the evidence base that need to be filled. This talk will describe the approach of the new Impact Center, as well as discuss the important differences in determining effectiveness of policies as compared to programs.
