J Prev Interv Community. 2024 Mar 18:1-18. doi: 10.1080/10852352.2024.2323885. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAnti-Black racism in K-12 education settings has long-term impacts on Black students, including negative academic and mental health outcomes. Limited interventions following experiences of racism shape Black students' expectations of K-12 education, accumulating over time into institutional distrust and these mental health outcomes.

J Prev Interv Community. 2024 Mar 14:1-24. doi: 10.1080/10852352.2024.2317668. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTYouth experiencing homelessness (YEH) are infrequently included in the development, organization, and provision of homelessness-related services.

This photovoice project partnered with six YEH (18-20 year...

The epistemology of extremism, bias, and violence in American schools: the shift from religious and racial profiling to social belonging and an identity-agnostic perspective
This study presents findings on the indicators of educational displacement as an early risk factor for radicalization in school settings in the U.S. We collected and analyzed data from 301 students living in 43 U.S. states to inform the creation of Reimagine Resilience, an innovative violence prevention training program for educators and educational staff developed at Teachers College, Columbia University, and to measure early indications of educational displacement as a risk factor for radicalization. The study shows that poor teacher-student relations and multiple experiences of biased speech and behavior are significant...

J Prev Interv Community. 2024 Mar 5:1-23. doi: 10.1080/10852352.2024.2313383. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBullying victimization remains a pressing concern to the health and development of U.S. adolescents. Victims of bullying face threats to their safety and education. Hence, interventions are needed to prevent bullying and equip others to intervene in bullying situations. Prior research has examined preventive interventions with little consideration of promotion-tailored, peace-encouraging, interventions. Further, there is a need to test whether people's motives toward preventive and promotive actions may fit with cert...
