OPRE Catalog of Research Program for Low-Income Couples

May 2012 | Author: Mathematica Policy Research

Excerpt from Executive Summary of Report: In the past few decades, research showing the advantages to children of being raised by both parents in healthy, stable relationships has led to an increase in couple-based programs designed to enhance relationship or co-parenting skills. In response to interest in such programming, the Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation within the Administration for Children and Families, US Department of Health and Human Services , engaged Mathematica Policy Research to conduct the Strengthening Families Evidence Review to identify and review studies of family-strengthening programs. This catalog focuses on studies of programs that served low-income couples.

This catalog compiles information from 54 studies of 39 programs. Each study description provides details on the research, such as study design and characteristics of those included in the sample and of the programs, such as structure, staffing and operations.
