Current Research Topics
ACEs
We examine the complex impacts of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), focusing on promoting resilience and long-term wellbeing for children and families. Through evidence-based research, we inform policies and practices that prevent trauma, support healthy development, and reduce the intergenerational effects of adversity.
Benefits of Nature
We explore the benefits of nature on mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing, focusing on how access to green spaces supports healthier communities. Through evidence-based research, we inform policies and programs that promote outdoor engagement, reduce stress, and enhance overall quality of life for people across the lifespan.
Integrated Treatment
We explore integrated treatment approaches that combine behavioral health and medical care to provide holistic support for individuals. Through evidence-based research, we inform policies and practices that improve coordination of care, enhance outcomes, and promote overall wellbeing for those with complex health and behavioral needs.
Research Labs and Centers
Several of our college’s research center and faculty-led research labs are involved with studying issues in equity and disparities.
