Optimizing the well-being of children, youth, and families

Who is CPPR?

We partner with communities and organizations—like state agencies, non-profits, coalitions, and local service providers—to create a happy and healthy world where families thrive. Our partners turn to us to problem solve, use data for good, and develop and leverage relationships to transform the system.

We are educators, social workers, scientists, psychologists, and sociologists and our work lies at the intersection of research, policy, and practice.
