CAFO Research Affiliates

Facilitating application and understanding of the best available research to frontline practice in care for vulnerable children.

A unique opportunity to directly impact practice through your research.

Far too often, an immense gulf exists between current research and frontline services to children and families. While those who care for vulnerable children want to apply the best knowledge in their work, many factors – including the overwhelming needs program managers face daily and the difficulty in applying narrow academic findings – make that difficult. However, academic researchers have a tremendous opportunity to creatively bridge the gap between research and frontline services, helping critical knowledge reach the people and places where it can make the biggest difference.

This program is for you if...

You are an academic researcher with an interest in applied research

You want to see your research make a real-world impact

You desire to work with and/or educate child-serving organizations
