Work and Family resource and newsletter...

The Sloan Work and Family Research Network at Boston College (with funding from the Sloan Foundation) is a great resource for students in human resources or general management courses. There is a section on relevant state laws and statutes, searchable by topic or geography, and a "literature database" of journal articles. "Statistics" offers factsheets on topics such as elder care, child care, family leave, etc. "Syllabi" is a collection of work-family syllabi from faculty in a variety of disciplines. There is also an annotated list of links to other relevant organizations and web sites.

At the top right of the home page there is a link to subscribe to their bulletins to stay informed on work-family issues.
