Led by Dr. Emma Armstrong-Carter, PhD
We research children’s and adolescents’ experiences helping/caring for family members – and how these experiences shape their wellbeing and school success. To do this work, we partner with schools and educational agencies. Our work is directly informing the design of school- and government-based policies that support children’s wellbeing and education.
We are based in the Eliot-Pearson Department of Child Study and Human Development at Tufts University, where we collaborate across disciplines to better understand and support caregiving youth.
