A conversation with leading experts on time—what we’re learning from American families across multiple studies—and people with ideas on how we can deliver it.

The roundtable will open with several short talks grounded in family listening: what current research with American families is teaching us about parenting today. The conversation will then shift to policy: what governments, employers, and institutions could do differently to help families reclaim time together.

Each featured speaker will be asked to give a brief (five-minute or less) overview of their recent findings or solution pitch, after which we’ll open the floor to the full group for discussion. The goal isn’t a series of formal presentations—it’s a working conversation, and we’ll design the room to encourage genuine exchange among speakers and attendees alike.

Please also join us for a public book talk with Annie Lowrey immediately following this closed-door conversation, and register for that event here.
