The School of Social Work is sponsoring virtual CEU opportunities hosted by alumna Gina Johnson, LCSW (MSW '96).

Professor Karen Tabb has been awarded $150,000 funding from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) Eugene Washington Engagement Awards Team for her project, “Engaging Stakeholders in Perinatal Depression Research in the Context of COVID-19.”

Spirituality, along with financial security, is essential to positive aging in Latino older adults, community workers found in a new study led by professor Lissette Piedra.

A new study of high school seniors co-written by professors Kevin Tan and Doug Smith, found that teens who crave risky experiences and unpredictable friends are more likely to smoke and use alcohol and various other substances.

PhD alum, Jordan Davis and graduate student Yang Wang also co-wrote the study.

The School of Social Work is looking for alumni from all focus areas to participate in virtual panels for students during the fall semester.
