“The 1619 Project” and Social Work Curriculum
“The 1619 Project,” developed by journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones for the New York Times Magazine, examines ways the abolished institution of slavery is implicated in contemporary racial inequities in the U.S., as well as the accomplishments of Black Americans despite layered structural oppression. A school of social work at a Research I university deemed “The 1619 Project” an apt pedagogical tool for preparing social work students, across undergra…
Associations between mother and father involvement with older adolescents
Family as a Pathway to Suicidal Behaviors Through Depression Symptoms and Internalized Homophobia
Research consistently highlights how systemic and social factors can adversely impact mental health, and the potential buffering effects of family support, yet raced sexual minorities are vastly underrepresented among these studies. As rates of suicide increase among Black people and remain high among men and those in gender and sexually diverse communities, this study sought to examine to relationships between family dynamics and suicidality amo…
Examining the Relationship Between Mass Incarceration, Gender Norms, and HIV Vulnerability for Formerly Incarcerated Black Men who Have Sex with Men and Women
A special section
Concomitant with a growing recognition of demographic shifts toward greater racial/ethnic diversity in the United States and widespread depictions of racial injustice, desires for increased racial/ethnic tolerance and inclusivity have been expressed in various sectors of U.S. society, including education, healthcare, and business. However, the literature on effective strategies and interventions for advancing anti‐racism, or efforts to reduce rac…
“I was simply trying to make it through the day”
The COVID‐19 pandemic and widely depicted incidents of racial injustice in the United States caused marked stress and shifts in society in 2020, leading to an acceleration of discussions related to promoting diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) in family‐oriented mental health professions, including through training. Despite the consequential role leaders of academic programs play in overseeing didactic and clinical training, little r…
Evaluation of a community-informed multimedia intervention to increase PrEP awareness and intention among African American young adults
Despite the benefits of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in preventing HIV and its potential for reducing racial/ethnic HIV inequities, PrEP remains underutilized among African Americans who may benefit from it. Factors of PrEP uptake include awareness and acceptability of this prevention strategy among this group, yet few community-informed interventions have been developed and evaluated to address these challenges. Thus, this study evaluates the…
Understanding Influences on Intention to Use Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Among African American Young Adults
Socio-Ecological Influences on HIV Care Engagement
Sociocultural and structural influences on HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Engagement and Uptake among African American Young adults
Our study highlights sociocultural and structural factors that act as barriers and facilitators to PrEP engagement. The SEM guided the understanding of how these factors operated on multiple levels. One of the sociocultural factors, community/social network influences operated at the interpersonal level of the SEM; the other two, stigma and medical mistrust, operated at the community level. The structural factors (PrEP availability, accessibility…
Post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms and PrEP intentions among Black American young adults at high-risk for HIV
Findings are discussed in the context of the negative impacts of high levels of PTSD and potential positive adaptations subsequent to moderate levels of PTSD that could be relevant to advances in HIV prevention efforts
A Qualitative Exploration of Various Stigmas Impacting HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Uptake Among African American Young Adults
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has promise for reducing racial/ethnic HIV disparities; yet, acceptance among African Americans remains low. PrEP-related stigmas may impact uptake, but this is understudied. This study examines mechanisms by which stigma impacts PrEP acceptance among various priority African American populations. Focus group data from 63 African American young adults (aged 18-29 years) in Louisville, Kentucky, explore how various …
Addressing Anti-Black Racism through the Social Work Curriculum
Racism is a pervasive system that permeates all social activity within U.S. society and for over four hundred years has constantly reproduced systems of inequality and disparate outcomes for Black people. Increasingly, attention has been given to integrating anti-racist content and methods into social work education and practice. By integrating concepts from racial equity and liberatory education theories, and providing a case example of one univ…
Community-Informed Development of a Campaign to Increase HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Awareness Among African-American Young Adults
Examining Factors that Impact Intentions to Use Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Among African-American Young Adults
The Impact of Closeness to Non-Parental Adults in Social Networks on Substance Use among Young Men Who Have Sex with Men
Non-parental adults (NPAs), or adults in social networks other than parents and romantic/sexual partnersare an under-examined potential resource in the lives of young men who have sex with men (YMSM). Using survey and social network data from a sample (n = 169) of ethnically diverse YMSM in a Midwestern city, this article examines longitudinal associations between emotional closeness to NPAs and subsequent substance use among YMSM. After controll…
The Role of Cognitive Stimulation in the Home and Maternal Responses to Low Grades in Low-Income African American Adolescents’ Academic Achievement
Parental involvement in education has generally been shown to foster adolescent academic achievement, yet little is known about whether two important forms of parental involvement—how parents respond to academic underachievement and how parents provide cognitive stimulation in the home—are related to academic achievement for African American adolescents. This study uses two waves of data to evaluate whether these forms of parental involvement are…
Individual- and Family-Level Correlates of Socio-Emotional Functioning among African American Youth from Single-Mother Homes
The majority of research on African American adolescents raised in single-mother homes has focused on externalizing problems, with less attention to other facets of socio-emotional functioning. Using a compensatory resilience approach, the current study examined risk and protective factors at the family (maternal warmth, monitoring, psychological control) and youth (ethnic identity and religiosity) levels as predictors of depressive symptoms, hop…
Changes in Couple Relationship Dynamics among Low-Income Parents in a Relationship Education Program Are Associated with Decreases in Their Children’s Mental Health Symptoms
Witnessing intimate partner violence (IPV) among parents negatively impacts millions of children in the United States each year. Low-income families are disproportionately affected by IPV compared to middle- and high-income individuals, and are beginning to be the focus of IPV secondary prevention interventions, including relationship education programs. Despite these developments, few studies have examined changes in psychosocial functioning amo…
Social networks and social support among ball-attending African American men who have sex with men and transgender women are associated with HIV-related outcomes
The House Ball Community (HBC) is an understudied network of African American men who have sex with men and transgender women, who join family-like houses that compete in elaborate balls in cities across the United States. From 2011 to 2012, we surveyed 274 recent attendees of balls in the San Francisco Bay Area, focusing on social networks, social support, and HIV-related behaviours. Participants with a high percentage of alters who were support…
