The Children's Equity Project is a child policy center, housed at Arizona State University (CEP-ASU) and led in partnership with scholars at 12 universities across the country. Their work focuses on closing opportunity gaps and advancing equity in all of the systems that impact the lives of children and families, so that all children – particularly those from historically and contemporary marginalized communities, can thrive.
The CEP-ASU team will be conducting mixed methods research with parents and families to better understand the types of questions they have about children in their lives from birth to 8 years old. CEP will be working with their Family Advisory Group across the country to conduct interviews and focus groups with families in 2024, and will publish a report of their findings that policymakers, technologists, and others can use when developing new child-serving technologies and systems.
