This is a new core, with the mission of assisting researchers to translate their research for various publics, both within and beyond relevant research communities. The establishment of this core builds on the successes of CSDA and the Mumford Center in bringing population issues, research, and data to the attention of both professional and non-professional audiences, as indicated by the Census 2000 series of reports written by John Logan; on the web-based GIS systems for delivering population data exemplified most recently by the 2000+ system created by Richard Alba and Glenn Deane; and on the Second Generation Initiative, which will make publicly available the wealth of data on the characteristics of the children in immigrant homes generated by Donald Hernandez, Nancy Denton, and their colleagues. In addition, the mission of this core will encompass the critical goal of assisting junior researchers in gaining attention for their research projects and findings.
