SALT LAKE CITY (February 22, 2023) – Sutherland Institute announced today the addition of W. Bradford Wilcox, director of the National Marriage Project and professor of sociology at University of Virginia, as a visiting scholar.
“Brad is a nationally renowned leader in family policy,” said Rick Larsen, president and CEO of Sutherland Institute. “His expertise will provide an important perspective as Sutherland elevates and strengthens the family as the fundamental institution of civil society.”
Wilcox is also a senior fellow at the Institute for Family Studies and a nonresident senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. His work for Sutherland will address the impact of family structure on child outcomes; the importance of education, work and family formation on upward mobility; and policy recommendations to support and strengthen Utah families.
