The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $791,403 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as UC Berkeley. The award period is from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027.

The grant will fund the creation of a comprehensive database of fertility indicators for each U.S. state and county since 1959 and 1982, respectively. This database will be freely accessible to researchers and policymakers to study changes in reproductive behavior and understand how local economic and social factors influence fertility rates. The project aims to address the lack of available data that has limited prior research on the consistent decline in U.S. fertility rates since the 2000s, which could have significant economic and social implications. The database will provide both period- and cohort-based fertility metrics to support in-depth demographic analysis. Subawards are planned as part of this grant.
