To better understand what healthy marriage and relationship education (HMRE) and responsible fatherhood (RF) programs are doing to reach and serve Hispanic families, we conducted an extensive review of programs serving Hispanic couples and fathers. Based upon this review, we developed a program guide summarizing multiple aspects of HMRE and RF programs that target and serve Hispanic populations.

The National Research Center on Hispanic Children & Families (Center) is supported by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) of the United States (U.S.) Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of two financial assistance awards (Award # 90PH0028, from 2018-2023, and Award # 90PH0032 from 2023-2028) totaling $13.5 million across the two awards with 99 percent funded by ACF/HHS and 1 percentage funded by non-government sources.
