Mandy Allison is a Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. She served as the Co-Director of the Prevention Research Center for Family and Child Health (PRC) with Dr. David Olds, Nurse Family Partnership (NFP) founder, from 2019 through 2023 and became the Director in 2024. The PRC team conducts rigorous, mixed-methods research with a focus on intervention early in the life cycle to inform policy and practice for promoting the health of children, families, and their communities. The team is committed to intentionally and authentically engaging with the community affected by their research. Dr. Allison is currently a principal investigator on two pragmatic trials—a trial of NFP for people with previous live births and a trial of enriching home-visiting to improve maternal and child cardiovascular health.
