Together Estranged Research Project Proposal Submission Form

Dear Researcher,

Thank you for your interest in partnering with our organization! Research on family estrangement is crucial and we appreciate your interest in researching estrangement.


Overview of the Research Committee Process

The TE Research Committee uses our organization’s central values of support, empower, and destigmatize to guide our evaluation of research requests. Pending committee review, we notify the researcher of our decision. Committee approved research is posted on a designated area of our website and in one posting on our social media platform. While not guaranteed, in some instances we may publicize your research opportunity further. In coordination with the Research Committee, completed research projects report results back to our community. We meet 5-6 times per year on a rolling basis to review research requests on a timely basis and we are unable to guarantee a specific review-by date. Please note that our committee is on hiatus from the 2nd week of November through January 2nd. Research submitted during this time

period will not be evaluated until our January meeting.
