Implementation Research
Our Goals
Our lab’s overarching mission is to improve the lives of people suffering from behavioral health disorders. We believe in a community-based participatory research approach that integrates community perspectives across all phases of research design. Our method is grounded in ongoing quality improvement, and we build partnerships and collaborations foremost before generalizable knowledge. Our team operates with a trauma-informed lens acknowledging the indelible impact of colonization in indigenous and often underserved populations. Health equity, not equality, centers our work which we do from various time zones across the United States.
What do we research?
Our research covers a wide range of different topics and conditions related to youth mental health, implementation science, and health equity. We have an emphasis on understanding youth mental health innovation in varying contexts, especially for underserved and indigenous populations.
