Families in the news.

- Abstract
The article presents news from the Australian Institute of Family Studies. The Institute was delighted by the media response to the November release of "Pathways from infancy to adolescence: Australian Temperament Project 1983-2000." The launch, at a party attended by about 300 of the 2000 participants in the study, provided the media with a rare opportunity to actually meet and talk with the young people whose development had been tracked for nearly 18 years. Ten years ago, the Institute undertook a study of the financial living standards of families who had been through divorce. The findings showed that men were quicker than women to recover financially and that women and children were much worse off than men after divorce. When the journal published the results of new research on the same topic in January there was much media interest. The Australian Institute of Family Studies is proud to be a partner in the CommunityLink Program run by the National Australia Bank. This year, in addition to Community, the National is involved in a major Centenary of Federation initiative, the Federation 100 Hours Program.
