Leigha MacNeill – To advance clinical utility of an emerging risk calculator for identifying when to worry and when to act when young children show signs of mental health concerns in pediatric care, we: (1) replicate an early childhood mental health risk algorithm (DECIDE); (2) determine preliminary predictive utility of additional child and parenting assets, advancing a strengths-based framework to reduce the likelihood of biased identification.

Jennifer Dobbs-Oates – Experiential learning, a long-aspired-to but often neglected career readiness tool, might finally be gaining a more solid foothold on campus due to today’s workforce disruptions.
The American Association of Colleges and Universities reports that only about a quarter of surveyed faculty, staff and administrators led experiential learning opportunities last fall, highlighting a “persistent gap between aspiration and execution.”
