CRF supports faculty in obtaining grant funding for family research primarily through the Family Research Scholars Program. In addition, CRF offers funding opportunities through the Student Grants and Awards Program, which provides funding to students so they can work with and be mentored by UMass faculty on research projects, and which provides recognition for outstanding student research on family issues.
