Humanizing First: Intervention Development with a Community-Engaged Focus to Support Health Equity

Community-engaged research practices are found to be effective in working with diverse communities and reducing racial inequities. Dr. Sonyia Richardson will provide strategies for developing community-engaged interventions with an approach she has coined as Humanizing First. Through her NIMH-funded research project, she will discuss strategies her team employed for developing an intervention aimed at preventing Black youth suicide.
