Our UNC-CH School of Social Work (SSW) team is collaborating with the North Carolina Department of Public Safety (NCDPS) to develop human trafficking identification and response protocols for North Carolina correctional settings. To inform the development of such protocols, we are conducting an environmental scan to determine how correctional settings (prisons and jails) across the United States are currently identifying and responding to victims of human trafficking.

This study explores how college students feel and think about using artificial intelligence (AI) to help with mental health. We want to see if students studying science and technology (STEM) feel differently about AI than students in other areas. We're studying this because AI is being used more and more to solve both work and personal problems. However, using AI in mental health is still new and has not been talked about much.

This study explores the willingness of off-reservation Muscogee (Creek) Nation citizens to engage in digital cultural connection and futurity. It aims to understand how online engagement can foster stronger cultural ties and enhance the connectivity and well-being of all Muscogee people. The study will be using a mix of online survey data from off-reservation citizens and in-person interviews of citizens that reside on the reservation to find out current resources offered to Muscogee citizens, gaps in communication, and where there is a need/want for future resources.

The significance of this project is to go beyond the discourse of culturally responsive practices in early childhood education and attend to the cultural and holistic needs of children and families by providing in-depth knowledge about what it means to be in ACE schools for Black families and their children. Coupled with the fact that much of the extant research on ACE has been on students in the upper grades and there has been little attention to parents' motivation for choosing ACE preschool programs, this proposed project has implications both for addressing inequities in early care and education access and experiences for Black children but also identifying a culturally-rooted approach to meeting the racial, cultural, and developmental needs of Black diasporic children in the U.S. during a critical time of development. This insight from Black families can create, cultivate, and expand such programs and practices across the country.
