What are Grandfamilies?
Grandfamilies are households where the grandparents have a primary role in raising their grandchildren. There are approximately 100,000 grandchildren living with grandparents in the state of Mississippi, alone! Dr. Danielle Nadorff’s Grandfamilies Lab examines the social, mental, emotional, behavioral, and physical outcomes for these “custodial grandchildren” and their grandparents, as well as examining how they compare to children raised in foster care. Dr. Nadorff is also the director of the new Grandfamilies Support Group of Starkville, MS.
