Preventing vicarious trauma through the research process as healing justice praxis
This article explores how our research team integrated abolition feminism (Davis et al, 2022), critical inquiry, embodiment and praxis-based knowledge into a four-year process investigating transformative justice (TJ) and restorative justice (RJ) remedies for gender-based violence. To generate insights, we used an iterative approach that involved reflective memo writing, team dialogue and engagement with relevant literature on gender-based violen…

Transformative justice and restorative justice approaches to campus sexual assault
Transformative justice and restorative justice approaches to campus sexual assault: a scoping review Campus sexual assault (CSA) remains a persistent public health problem on U.S. college campuses. Changes in U.S. federal law have highlighted the need for responses to campus sexual assault (CSA) that meet the needs of persons harmed, increase meaningful accountability for persons responsible, and engage the whole campus in prevention efforts. The…
Call to Action
The absence of disabled students in higher education, including social work, is a problem not only because of the missed educational opportunities and adverse effect on their earning potential but because disabled people’s knowledge, lived experiences, and skills can enhance social work services, advance innovation in knowledge production, and contribute to transformative organizational and movement leadership. School punishment, including suspen…
Opportunities for psychologists to advance health equity
Health and health care inequities persist because the efforts to eliminate them have ignored structural racism, typically using a power neutral approach to diagnose and solve the problem. Critical theory can address many of the conceptual weaknesses of current approaches, help identify how racism operates in health care, and open the door for more effective individual employee and organizational actions to advance health equity. We apply Martín-B…
Awakening the Antiracism Collective Through Transformative Organizational Praxis
Dismantling structures that impede social work professional and organizational growth begins with social work educational institutions. In 2020, the convergence of three pandemics - COVID-19, economic injustice, and, notably, structural racism, catalyzed a group of social work staff and faculty at a public Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) in the Southern U.S. The group relied on community organizing and organizational change strategies to form …
Integrating Critical, Engaged, and Abolitionist Pedagogies to Advance Antiracist Social Work Education
The intersecting coronavirus, racism, and economic pandemics electrified U.S. social work organizations into creating long overdue antiracism initiatives. This necessary shift includes the Council on Social Work Education specifying that curriculums must consist of frameworks and practices that eliminate racism. Social work educators will need to incorporate antiracism into their teaching. We argue that critical, engaged, and abolitionist pedagog…
Exclusionary School Discipline during Childhood and Adolescent Police Encounters
A growing body of literature demonstrates exclusionary discipline (e.g., suspension, expulsion) elevates the risk of arrest and incarceration. Even so, the bulk of research to date overlooks the influence of exclusionary discipline during childhood on police contact experiences that may not result in a formal arrest. Using data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study (FFCWS), we find that, regardless of early delinquent involvement, e…
Unincorporated Health
Increased mortality rates and decreased life expectancy in the United States are associated with rurality, even after adjusting for poverty. In unincorporated rural communities, high population density may compound the negative health impact of the upstream factors associated with rurality, yet little is known about how this context contributes to residents' health. We conducted nine focus groups with youth and adults from March-July 2017 in two …
Bridging the Grey Gap
This article provides a social work approach to reviewing the grey literature as part of a scoping or systematic review that attends to all layers of the social ecology through a person-in-environment framework. Little guidance exists on how to conduct a grey literature review specific to social work. Yet, consulting the grey literature—which often includes knowledge generated by practitioners and community members outside of academia—aligns with…
Reframing school-based restorative justice as a structural population health intervention
The Acceptability of Biobehavioral Research With Latino Youth in the United States
In this study, we explored Latinx adolescents’ knowledge and perceptions of biobehavioral research and their willingness to participate in such studies. We conducted four focus groups in the summer of 2014 with Latinx adolescents in Texas between the ages of 12 and 17 years ( n = 17; 53% male; M age = 14.6 years [ SD = 1.66]) who were recruited from a community-based clinic. Five themes emerged from our content analysis: (a) protection of human s…
Culturally Adapted Substance Use Interventions for Latino Adolescents
Purpose: To examine the characteristics and effects of culturally adapted substance use interventions with Latino adolescents on substance use outcomes. Methods: Systematic review and meta-analytic methods were used to synthesize effects across studies on substance use outcomes at posttest and follow-up time points. Results: Ten studies comprising 12,546 Latino adolescents met eligibility criteria. Meta-analytic results suggest positive, yet smal…
