The Center on the Everyday Lives Families
(CELF) is directed by
Dr.
Elinor Ochs and situated in the UCLA Department of Anthropology.
It is one of six
Sloan Centers on
Working Families supported
by the Alfred
P. Sloan Foundation’s
Workplace, Workforce, and
Working Families Program on Dual-Career Working Middle Class
Families.
CELF is an interdisciplinary center where
anthropologists, applied linguists, education
specialists, and psychologists study how
working parents and their children approach the challenges
of balancing the demands of work, school,
and family life using detailed, ethnographic
research of everyday life. The center has four aims:
| 1) detailed, ethnographic
research on the home life of middle class working families |
| 2) creation of a digital
archive of everyday family life |
| 3) providing research training
opportunities for scholars of family life |
4) informing public dialogue
on working family life
