CRANE RESEARCH FORUM: Fathers matter: The importance of father involvement on child development in early childhood
Each month’s Crane Research Forum features research on emerging or key topics affecting children. These events are free and open to all, but registration is required.
Join us for our October Crane Research Forum as Dr. Susan Yoon shares findings on child and family resilience among families living in low-income households.
Fathers can make unique and important contributions to their children’s well-being and positive development. Through a recent project funded by the U.S. Administration for Children and Families, Dr. Susan Yoon will present findings on child and family resilience among families living in households with low income. Specifically, she will discuss distinct patterns of father involvement and their roles in promoting social, behavioral, and cognitive development in their children during early childhood.
Dr. Yoon’s work focuses on promoting resilience and well-being in children who have experienced childhood trauma, including child maltreatment. She also wants to identify what promotes or hinders the development of resiliency following child maltreatment. Dr. Yoon has been recognized for her outstanding contributions to research in the field of child maltreatment from the American Psychological Association.
