Stanford Center for the Study of Families, Children, and Youth

The Stanford Center for the Study of Families, Children, and Youth was established in 1974 with support from Father Flanagan's Boys' Town. The Center, known then as the Boys' Town Center for the Study of Youth Development at Stanford, sponsored interdisciplinary research on the effects of deprivation and neglect on the life chances of children. After the contract with Boys' Town was dissolved in 1986, the Center changed its name to the Stanford Center for the Study of Families, Children, and Youth and broadened its focus from children aged 7 to 19 to encompass families and childhood concerns.
