Some readers may have heard about our server woes which resulted in the blog being down for a few days last week. I’m sad to report that when that happened we lost our archive of posts, too. There was some great stuff in there!
Since our various bloggers have gone on to bigger and better things, and since I’m taking some time out to work on a book, we’ve decided, with some reluctance, to suspend the blog for now. It’s been a fantastic five or so years. Many, many thanks to our terrific bloggers, to our loyal readers, and to all those who made so many substantive and provocative comments in those glory years when we had a comments feature.
In the meantime, if you’d like to receive an approximately once-monthly e-newsletter report about new research and ideas coming out of the Institute for American Values (which has hosted this blog, and where I work) please do sign up using the form directly below. No junk, we promise. Just more good stuff along the lines of our topics on the venerable Family Scholars Blog. You can also find great research and resources at our Center for Marriage and Families site which is updated regularly.
For now, goodbye 
Elizabeth Marquardt
