Issue Brief: Family Change and Diversity in Canada
An overview of family diversity and change across Canada
Families in Canada, like those in other high-income countries, have undergone major changes in recent decades. Families have become increasingly diverse, and understanding these changes and the variance in family patterns offers important guidance for developing tailored and effective social policies regarding family, health, education, and housing.
In this Issue Brief, Shelley Clark, Sarah R. Brauner-Otto, and Mahjoube AmaniChakani highlight the evolving profile of families in Canada and discuss implications for family wellbeing.
