Abstract	This theme issue of the Canadian newsletter "Transitions" in both English and French explores the question of the future of families in a period of broken marriages, difficult times, and an obsession with individual success and materialism. "Families of the Future: New Ways to Do the Same Old Things," summarizes the findings of Canada's Demographic Review, which for 6 years conducted research on the shape of Canadian society. The article discusses the implications of many trends, including the rise of single parent families, the increase of family members in the labor force, and the aging of the population. "Brave New Families in the Second North American Family Revolution," (Judith Stacey), describes a new family revolution observed through a more intensive and personal kind of research, noting the wide diversity of family and household arrangements. "Child Abuse and Neglect," (Kathy Eisner) summarizes "Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention Programs," published by the Vanier Institute of the Family, which notes that although researchers are not agreed on a single cause of child abuse and neglect, an impressive range of preventive programs has emerged. Finally, an annual review of Vanier Institute activities and publications for 1992-93 is included. (TM)
