What We Do
As members of Georgetown University focused on child and adolescent wellness, we devote our efforts to conducting research and providing educational opportunities that promote health, development and well being.
- Our research includes clinical explorations, experimental investigations, service systems transformations, and policy considerations, all with the common goal of improving the lives of children and youth.
- We have a shared educational mission aimed at training professionals and future professionals in evidence-based practices so that they can work to improve the lives of children and their families.
- As informed scholars we recognize our responsibility to serve as advocates in the health care, educational and political systems to advance sound practices, programs and policies.
