High prevalence of criminal legal involvement among non-fatally injured ED patients – an exploratory retrospective observational cohort analysis
BACKGROUND: Individuals who have been incarcerated are at high risk of death by homicide after release from carceral settings. Our study aimed to assess the prevalence of criminal legal system involvement (CLSI) among non-fatal violently injured patients enrolled in a hospital-based violence intervention (HVIP) program and describe demographic and clinical characteristics specific to this population. METHODS: This is an exploratory retrospective …

A Latent Class Analysis of Personality Traits in Adults Experiencing Homelessness
This study distinguishes clinically and theoretically meaningful subgroups of people experiencing homelessness based on their endorsement of personality difficulties, using nationally representative data of the civilian, noninstitutionalized population of the United States, inclusive of those reporting past-year homelessness (N = 704). A bias-adjusted three-step latent class analysis was used to estimate latent class measurement models; classify …
Stress and trauma among police officers
Racial justice movements sparked by police killings of Black and Brown persons have led to a reassessment of the role of policing in America. This has promoted important conversations about how best to improve public safety and design law enforcement practices that are equitable and just across communities. A component of this conversation is addressing stress and trauma faced by police as a routine part of their duties, as it can affect the qual…
An exploration of factors impacting implementation of a multisystem hospital‐based violence intervention program
Community violence, particularly gun violence, is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in young people in the United States. Because persons experiencing violence-related injuries are likely to receive medical care through emergency departments, hospitals are increasingly seen as primary locations for violence intervention services. Currently, there is little research on how best to implement hospital-based violence intervention programs (H…
Bridging the Gap
Systematic inquiry is an inherent part of social work practice. Despite this fact, social work students and practitioners continue to view research as difficult, intimidating and irrelevant. This disconnect is compounded by a lack of rigorous study on how best to teach research concepts to social work students. One way to bridge this gap is to provide a more robust integration of research principles and practices into the MSW curriculum through p…

Co-morbid mental health issues in a clinical sample of Latinx adults
Latinx adults in the U.S. encounter barriers to quality behavioral healthcare despite high rates of trauma exposure and co-morbid mental health issues in clinical samples. Engaging Latinx adults in treatment requires understanding the clinical issues facing this population. This study analyzed clinical records from 120 Latinx adults referred for mental health assessment during a primary care visit. Nearly two-thirds met criteria for partial- or f…
Strategic Storytelling
Peer providers of mental health services use their personal illness and recovery narratives to help other mental health service users. Despite a substantial body of evidence supporting the effectiveness of these providers, little is known about the underlying strategies they employ in their professional practice. In this study, I used in-depth interviews with 23 peers to explore the most important practices they used in their day-to-day work with…

An Exploration of Factors that Effect the Implementation of Peer Support Services in Community Mental Health Settings
Evaluation of a Multi-Phase Trauma-Focused Intervention with Latino Youth
This pilot study examined the effectiveness of a multi-phase trauma-informed intervention with 24 trauma-exposed Latino youth. Treatment included a somatic-based intervention to target physiological hyperarousal symptoms and a sensory/cognitive-based trauma-focused intervention targeting stabilization of the trauma experience. Twenty-four participants completed several measures for mental health symptomatology and psychosocial functioning at base…
Learning and Change in a Community Mental Health Setting
This article offers methodological reflections and lessons learned from a three-year university-community partnership that used participatory action research methods to develop and evaluate a model for learning and change. Communities of practice were used to facilitate the translation of recovery-oriented and evidence-based programs into everyday practice at a community mental health agency. Four lessons were drawn from this project. First, the …
Understanding Change in Community Mental Health Practices through Critical Discourse Analysis
Scholarship in the community mental health field has sought to understand the process of recovery from serious mental illness. Emphasis has been placed on the development and implementation of interventions designed to achieve concrete, professionally derived outcomes. Less emphasis has been placed on understanding how practitioners learn to implement evidence-based recovery-oriented practices over time and the tools that they use to develop such…
Consumer and Practitioner Perceptions of the Harm Reduction Approach in a Community Mental Health Setting
Challenges to Implementing the Harm Reduction Approach
The social work literature recently has supported greater use of the harm reduction approach in professional practice. Implementing this approach, however, presents its challenges. We explore how practitioners in a housing program for people with histories of psychiatric disabilities, substance use disorders, and homelessness perceived the harm reduction approach. Prior to the opening of this new program, agency staff completed a questionnaire an…
