About the CWRC Inaugural Symposium

Each spring, the Child Welfare Research Center (CWRC) will host an annual symposium that brings together faculty, staff, students, practitioners, policymakers, and community members to advance child welfare research and its application. The symposium features both research presentations highlighting the work of CWRC leadership and affiliates, and practice-focused training workshops responding to the training needs in our community.

Grounded in the CWRC’s mission to build evidence on effective prevention and intervention practices, the symposium emphasizes scholarship that contributes to child, family, and community wellbeing, particularly for those involved or at risk of involvement with child welfare systems. Through this convening, CWRC seeks to strengthen University–community partnerships, promote evidence‑based policy and practice, and support the translation of rigorous research into real‑world impact across Texas and beyond.
