The Hood Center for Children and Families was established at Dartmouth in 1990 with support from the Charles H. Hood Foundation. The Hood Center is dedicated to improving the well-being of children, adolescents, and families through health promotion research and family-centered support. Our research and projects focus on the impact of media on teen smoking; obesity prevention; the management of chronic health conditions in children and its impact on families; and the impact of prenatal and early life exposures on adult health outcomes.
