Who are We?
Our goal is to foster discussion among the broad orphan & vulnerable children (OVC) community to promote evidence-based, peer-reviewed research.
This site was founded by the Center for Health Policy and Inequalities Research at Duke University, but it is a collaborative project with connections to many other research institutions.
