*CFP: Geography of Families—Paper Session organizer: Deborah S Metzel* This paper session intends to initiate the geographies of families. Families are defined broadly as traditional, non-traditional; nuclear, extended; by birth or by choice. Geographical themes and issues of family may include but are not limited to, care-giving, socio-spatial relationships between parents, children, and siblings; disabilities; health and medical issues, emotional geographies, migration (on various scales), feminist-family issues; economics; changing demographics of families; and residential location decisions. Abstracts should clearly identify what spatial themes will be presented.
