The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE) in the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services has established the first-ever National Center for Marriage Research (NCMR),
now known as the National Center for Family & Marriage Research (NCFMR), through a cooperative agreement with Bowling Green State University. The National Center for
Family & Marriage Research aims to improve our understanding of how marriage and family structure affect the health and wellbeing of individuals, families, children and communities, and informs policy development
and programmatic responses. In addition to supporting interdisciplinary research on marriage and
family structure, the NCFMR is developing research capacity and widely disseminating findings.
