California Families Project

The California Families Project (CFP) is an ongoing longitudinal study of the health, development, and well-being of 674 Mexican-origin youth and their parents. The project was launched in 2006, when the youth were 10 years old. Annual assessments have occurred over the past 11 years, and Wave 12 is currently in progress. The project has received funding from several NIH institutes, including NIDA, NIAAA, NIMH, NICHD, and NIA.
