Families Alive

Tanner Lecture Series

The Families Alive Tanner Lecture Series features leading scholars and practitioners in Family Science, Human Development, and Early Childhood.  Lectures and presentations will be held in person on the campuses of Weber State University and will be made available online a few days after the lecture.  Typically, we will offer 4 lectures per semester. 

The Families Alive Tanner Lecture Series has been hosted by the Department of Child and Family Studies at Weber State University since the 1980s.  We are grateful for an endowment from the OC Tanner Corporation and other donors including the Utah Marriage Commission.
