Abstract
A key intended impact of applied developmental research is the enhancement of the life chances of the diverse individuals, families, and communities served by such scholarship. The growing interest and activity in applied developmental science ( (ADS) ) come at a propitious time in the history of academic and civic concern with the quality of human life and development. Civil society rests upon integrative contributions by all sectors and institutions of a nation in support of social justice. Such contributions to civil society would assure that there is a “level playing field” for individuals to pursue lives marked by positive and healthy contributions to self, family, and community. ADS may act as an instrument for the promotion of civil society by ADS-oriented scholars conducting research that engages public policy; and such scholars working to promote in their institutions a sustained commitment to engaging their communities in collaborative actions that merge research and service in support of civil society.
