The Office of Work and Family (OWF) provides information, resources, referrals, educational programs and support to those combining work lives with family concerns. The OWF serves the faculty, staff, post docs, and students of Harvard Medical and Dental Schools, Harvard School of Public Health and the participating affiliated institutions as an expression of the medical community's commitment to helping families balance their work lives with the important job of caring for their children, their aging parents and their own personal lives. Whether you're looking for child care centers, family child care, after school programs, summer camps, in-home child care providers or information about public or private schools, the Office of Work and Family can provide you with the resources you need to find the situation that works best for your family.
