WELCOME TO THE RCCF
The Research Consortium on Children and Families (RCCF) is a multidisciplinary
USC endeavor drawing together faculty from behavioral/social sciences and
closely related disciplines who conduct grant-funded research related to
children/youth and their families. Sponsored by the USC Research Foundation,
the RCCF aims to build on research strengths by increasing the capacity
and enhancing the infrastructure and climate for grant-seeking faculty who
undertake scholarly and scientific work in the child and family area. The
unique and innovative feature of the RCCF is that it draws together faculty
from disparate units, without creating a structural entity such as a center
or institute, to provide a vehicle for collaboration that builds on existing
areas of funding success, nurtures research capacities of promising junior
faculty, attracts talented new faculty, and creates a multidisciplinary
climate that is responsive to funding agency and societal priorities.
