Creative arts and healing among veterans
Odyssey participants experienced positive impacts that had ripple effects through their lives and valued using the arts to tell their stories. The Odyssey Project sits in a "sweet spot" between clinical art therapy and other less immersive veterans' community arts programs, making it appealing to veterans struggling with reintegration
U.S. Army Reserve and National Guard Soldiers’ Motivations for Joining the Military and Their Effects on Post-Deployment Mental Health
The link between combat exposure and mental health among military service members has been well-established, and reservists are at increased risk. This study uses a subset of cross-sectional data ( N = 239) from Operation: SAFETY, an ongoing study of U.S. Army Reserve/National Guard soldiers, to examine the moderating effects of reasons for joining the military on the relations between combat exposure and post-deployment mental health symptomatol…
Coping Strategies and Workplace Supports for Peers with Substance Use Disorders
Introduction: Substance use disorder (SUD) peers provide support and navigation through a fragmented treatment system for people who use drugs (PWUD) and those in recovery. While barriers to peers’ work are well established, from role ambiguity to stigma surrounding substance use, little research has focused on factors that facilitate peers’ work. Methods: We conducted in-depth semi-structured interviews (N=20) with peers as part of an evaluation…
Effects of Social Network Characteristics on Mental Health Outcomes Among United States Army Reserve and National Guard Soldiers
Treatment Experiences Among People Who Use Opioids
The prevalence of opioid use disorder (OUD) and surge in overdose deaths remain key public health concerns. Despite evidence supporting the efficaciousness of medications for opioid use disorder, most people with OUD do not receive treatment. In this qualitative study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 35 adults in a northeastern city to learn about their experiences with substance use treatment. Qualitative data were analyzed using …
Variations in Risk and Motivations for Substance Use over the Course of Military Service
Background Epidemiological data identify risk factors related to substance use among military service members to inform prevention and treatment. Less is known about how motivations and risks for substance use vary over a military service career. The study goal was to explore substance use patterns and motivations among a sample of United States undergraduate student veterans in order to identify periods of risk. Methods: Qualitative interviews w…
“I just need to be with my family”
A global migration of individuals fleeing persecution, violence and armed conflict reached almost 60 million world-wide in 2015. This world-wide crisis of displacement reflects people seeking safety across borders and oceans; dangerous journeys that compound the trauma endured by these women, men and children. Refugees/asylum seekers face barriers upon entry to the U.S. The Western New York Center for Survivors (WNYCST) provides care coordination…
Existing in Liminal Space
Always interested in liminality, identity, and transitions, I reflect on how I came to embrace these tensions in my own academic career. In this paper, I discuss my experiences as a “liminal” anthropologist and illuminate the challenges and opportunities that arise from working between and across traditional disciplinary categories. I highlight lessons learned from “studying up,” focusing on identity negotiation and transition among National Guar…
I have it just in case’ — Naloxone access and changes in opioid use behaviours
Combat exposure, emotional and physical role limitations, and substance use among male United States Army Reserve and National Guard soldiers
Finding Balance
Militaries exhibit characteristics of total and "greedy" institutions. However, in the United States National Guard where negotiation of dual belonging in civilian and military worlds is necessary, institutional control of the individual is limited. National Guard service highlights the need to view individuals as agents who possess the ability to monitor and enact their own goals and to understand the immense variation found among individuals wi…
Citizen, Soldier, or Citizen-Soldier? Negotiating Identity in the US National Guard
This study examines the construction of US Army National Guard members' dual identities as soldiers and civilians and posits processes, including behavioral practice, spatial displacement, and narrativity, which soldiers use to reconcile these potentially contradictory identities to develop an understanding of themselves as 'citizen-soldiers.' Ethnographic evidence gathered from in-depth interviews suggests that for National Guard members who hav…
