The University Committee on Family and Child Care Issues was created by President Brodie in 1990 and charged to address child and family care issues that remained within the University after the disbanding of the University Task Force on Child Care and the establishment of the Children's Campus.
The collection includes minutes, correspondence, reports and printed material reflecting the work of the Committee and its following teams: Legislative Issues Team, Employee and Students Needs Assessment Team, Community Resources Team, and the Policy Team. Issues addressed by the Committee, as reflected in the records, include child care, quality of worklife, family sensitive policies and management practices, and family sensitive federal and state legislation. Other concerns reflected in the records are elder care as well as compensation and benefits. Included in the records are the working files of Lois Artis, former chairperson of the Committee. The material ranges in date from 1986-1993.
