Our research seeks to understand the needs of specific underserved populations and ultimately improve the health care they receive.
Our faculty and staff have expertise conducting health services research involving special populations, including refugees, veterans/military service members, people involved in the criminal justice system, and racial and ethnic minority groups. Projects in this area cover a wide variety of topics and utilize diverse methodologies, including qualitative and quantitative methods, program evaluations, community-based participatory research, and public health and health services approaches.
