Welcome to our new website!

We’re thrilled to share our new website with you!

We’ve heard from many people over the years that they appreciated our reports and loved our resources — but weren’t always able to find what they were looking for on our old website.

Our new website is designed to make our work — including Reports, Research + Initiatives, Resources for Educators, Resources for Parents, and Resources by Topic — more accessible and more actionable for our visitors.

In the summer of 2018, we took a hard look at our site structure, page layout, imagery, and how to represent the many points of interconnection in our work. We analyzed how visitors were coming to us and tried to empathize with their experience once they got here. We read books, talked to experts and general users, borrowed good ideas from other websites, and committed ourselves to ensuring that every choice we made brought us closer to the following goals:

  1. Visitors can find what they are looking for.

  2. What visitors find is presented clearly.

  3. Visitors can find other things that are relevant to them.

  4. Visitors can easily share things if they choose to.

We hope we hit the mark! If you have any questions or feedback on the new site, we welcome your feedback. Just email info@makingcaringcommon.org.
