Brad Wilcox, Associate Professor at University of Virginia, calls the new journal the most incisive guide to issues facing the American family today...An invaluable resource for anyone wishing to stay on the cutting edge of research on family trends.
Dr. Allan Carlson, President of the Howard Center and Professor at Hillsdale College, described the new quarterly, The Family In America is devoted to exploring how the key problems of American society today are due more to the generation-long retreat from marriage and the breakdown of the natural family than to any immediate economic or political crisis.

The editorial team includes, Carlson, founding editor and publisher; Robert W. Patterson, editor; and Bryce Christensen, editor-at-large. Patterson and Christensen also write the journals New Research section, which gleans the latest research from the biological and social sciences that affirm the promise of marriage and the natural family to American society.
