Families in the Post-Pandemic Era
In line with
the 2023 NCFR Annual Conference theme, “The way we are now,” Family Focus, a section of NCFR Report member magazine, will explore the syndemic—a pandemic that occurs simultaneously as preexisting social and health pandemics—and provide research on where families are in the present day and what unique and unexpected challenges they currently face or may experience ahead.
Articles are sought that highlight advances that have been made, as well as gaps that may still exist, in research, practice, theory, and policies that affect the lives of families “post-pandemic.”
Submit your proposals by Monday, Dec. 5, 2022, by completing the online proposal form. Final articles are due Jan. 15, 2023.
