The Children's Equity Project (CEP)

Closing opportunity gaps and advancing equity in all of the systems that impact the lives of children and families.

About the CEP

The Children’s Equity Project is a child policy center housed at Arizona State University. Our work uses data and research to inform policies that promote child wellbeing, close opportunity gaps, and advance civil and human rights in all of the systems that impact the lives of children and families.

We engage in rigorous original research and data analysis; partner with decision makers at every level of government to inform policies that set the conditions that enable every child to thrive, particularly children from historically and contemporarily marginalized communities; and engage with states and communities to provide systems building training and technical assistance.

Our work spans early childhood, K-12 education, health and mental health, immigration, economic justice, and disability policy, among other areas.
