Research-driven consulting rooted in family and community.
As professional researchers and community innovators, we investigate inequities in the psycho-social and health status of ethnically diverse families across the life course, with a particular interest in mid-life and older populations. HDNA translates that scholarship into practical strategy for non-profits, coalitions, and public agencies.
From grant writing to workshops, and community partnerships to applied research, let’s design the next chapter together.
