CCF 12th Annual Conference: April 17 and 18, 2009 at the University of Illinois, Chicago

The CCF 12th Annual Conference, "Relationships, Sexuality, and Equality: How Far Have We Come?" was held on April 17-18 at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

The conference attracted national media coverage and featured cutting-edge panels on changes in masculinities, femininities, and relationships.  A special feature was the keynote address by Johns Hopkins sociologist Andrew Cherlin, who launched his book, "The Marriage-Go-Round: The State of Marriage and the Family in America Today," which examines the cultural contradictions caused by the high value Americans place on both marriage and individualism.

PowerPoint slides from the conference are forthcoming.
