And Justice for All: Families and the Criminal Justice System reflects the Groves focus on social justice inquiry in the context of unprecedented growth in prison populations in recent decades. The Groves Conference was held in Boston in 2013 to examine the interface between families and the criminal justice system and other relevant issues pertaining to the police, courts, and corrections. The Groves Conference on Marriage and Family continues to meet each year across the United States and internationally to explore how families can be resilient in the face of changes that will affect their daily lives-now and in the future.
Groves Monographs on Marriage and Family is an edited book series based on the annual meetings of the Groves Conference on Marriage and Family, an interdisciplinary, interprofessional organization of limited invited membership founded in 1934. Groves Monographs publishes work on the leading edges of theory development and empirical research in the field of family studies. Individual volumes are edited by the chairs of the annual Groves Conferences and include peer-reviewed chapters by the conference presenters and invited authors. Topics are timely and provocative with diverse themes.
