The Autism Research program is an on-going project that has 2 components. One involves permission to conduct Records Reviews of client data and the other is a Research Registry for permission to contact subjects about future research studies. The purpose of both components is to support research in the field of autism and to provide information to help others with this disability.

The purpose of this study is to test a smartphone app that helps Black women with binge eating. First, participants in the study will complete interviews that help identify barriers and reasons that lead to binge eating in Black women with obesity. With that information, researchers will test and improve a smartphone app to include necessary intervention functions to reduce binge eating in the target population. Part of the testing process includes focus group sessions where participants will give feedback on : 1) organization and presentation, 2) content, 3) sensitivity to issues faced by Black women who binge eat; 4) therapeutic benefit; 5) user-friendliness; and 6) quality of intervention. All information collected from focus groups will be considered in the final version of the app.
