About Us
<http://childtrends.org/_catdisp_page.cfm?LID=124>
Child Trends is a nonprofit, nonpartisan research center that studies
children at all stages of development.
Our mission is to improve outcomes for children by providing research,
data, and analysis to the people and institutions whose decisions and
actions affect children, including program providers, the policy
community, researchers and educators, and the media.
Founded in 1979, Child Trends helps keep the nation focused on children
and their needs by identifying emerging issues; evaluating important
programs and policies; and providing data-driven, evidence-based guidance
on policy and practice.

Success Story

This brief describes how the experience of the Partnership for Results
makes a compelling case for the effectiveness of an integrated,
broad-based deployment of evidence-based programs to improve outcomes for
children. Success, however, depends heavily on also having an effective
form of local governance in place to provide essential supports and to
maximize the capacity of each evidenced-based program to serve those most
likely to benefit from the program or service.
