Environments</p> <p><strong>Funder</strong>: NIH/National Institute on Aging</p> <p><strong>About the Project:&nbsp;</strong><span><span><span>This study aims to investigate the preventive effect of activity engagement profiles (AEP) on cognitive decline and to examine whether AEP mitigate immigration-related and neighborhood-related risks for dementia among community-dwelling US Chinese aging immigrants. The rapid growth of Alzheimer and related dementias (ADRD) and of recent immigration of Chinese older adults call for population-based health interventions that are built on everyday activities. Guided by the community-based participatory research principles, the team has collaborated with over 20 community-based organizations and social services agencies in the Greater Chicago area.&nbsp;</span></span></span><a href="https://live-socialwork2024-pitt.pantheonsite.io/faculty-research-spotlight-fengyan-tang"><strong>Learn More Here</strong></a></p> <h2>James Huguley</h2> <p><img alt="James Huguley" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="074ed78e-349e-4f38-baa9-3105ac55597b" height="255" src="/sites/default/files/huguley_james.jpeg" width="279" loading="lazy" class="align-right"><strong>Title</strong>: Just Discipline Project</p> <p><strong>Funders</strong>: US.

While local districts have begun relaxing zero-tolerance suspension policies and implementing stand-alone restorative practice programs, these shifts alone do not equip teachers and administrators with the resources and training necessary to take on the issues that tend to cause overreliance on exclusionary practices in the first place. Reforms like restorative practices have been attempted nationwide with the goal of reducing suspensions and mitigating the disparate impacts of exclusionary discipline on Black and Latinx youth, but no large-scale studies have been attempted with fully staffed programs. In response, this project evaluates the implementation and performs a cost-benefit analysis of restorative practices in urban school contexts, as well as building regional capacity and buy-in for future restorative practices work.&nbsp;</span></span></span><a href="https://live-socialwork2024-pitt.pantheonsite.io/faculty-research-highlight-james-huguley"><strong>Learn More Here</strong></a></p> <h2><strong>Nev Jones</strong></h2> <p><img alt="Nev Jones" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="af4d35ad-a343-4eed-afea-7f9ab1384b24" height="224" src="/sites/default/files/nev_jones.jpeg" width="291" loading="lazy" class="align-right"><strong>Title</strong>: Optimizing Disability benefit Decisions and Outcomes in First Episode Psychosis</p> <p><strong>Funder</strong>: Research Foundation for Mental Hygiene (Prime: NIMH)</p> <p><strong>About the Project</strong>:&nbsp;The 5-year project will engage in extensive new data collection, involving both surveys and interviews, to better understand the factors influencing the decisions young people make, and contexts that influence these decisions, including family socioeconomics, structural racism, and the available, accessibility and quality of vocational supports.

The United Way of Southwestern Pennsylvania (UWSPA) is implementing pilot guaranteed income projects locally and is seeking to understand the effects of these programs on the well-being of single mothers. This project is a partnership between a faculty member at the University of Pittsburgh School of Social Work and the UWSPA to examine the effects of guaranteed income pilot programs that provide $500 a month to two cohorts of mothers in Western Pennsylvania. Specifically, the program seeks to understand how guaranteed income affects the financial well-being, employment, educational attainment, perceptions of interactions with children, and mental health of program participants.</p> <p>To accomplish this goal a faculty member and students at the University of Pittsburgh School of Social Work will work with the UWSPA to understand the effects of the program through interviews with program participants. Interviews will include a range of closed and open-ended items that allow for the direct coding of specific measures as well as a deeper understanding of these measures and other issues relevant to the guaranteed income program. <a href="https://live-socialwork2024-pitt.pantheonsite.io/faculty-research-highlight-jeff-shook"><strong>Learn More Here</strong></a></p> </div> </div> </div> </article>
