Research Connections to Current Events
Over the past couple of years, women's healthcare rights, gender issues, and LGBTQ+ rights are increasingly coming under scrutiny and are increasingly in jeapordy. A large portion of my research aims to identify the importance of peoples experiences and resources that can better support individuals experiencing stigmatized issues in the workplace, the role of organizations in policy making, and the role of organizaions and the people in them for addressing stigmatized issues and supporting individuals who experience them.
