Kempe Summer Interdisciplinary Research Institute

The Kempe Center’s annual one-week in-person Summer Interdisciplinary Research Institute in Aurora, Colorado, will feature intensive teaching and dedicated mentoring by national and international experts. One of the Center’s primary goals is to expand the pool of scholars trained to conduct child maltreatment research.

The Center is actively recruiting participants for our Course 2: Challenges in Child Maltreatment Research AND Course 3: Child Abuse & Neglect Prevention Research and Evaluation through a Public Health Lens. Course 2 is designed for graduate students who want to better understand where their research fits in the complex and ever changing child maltreatment field from a social welfare perspective. Course 3 is directed at graduate students seeking to learn how to evaluate large scale primary preventive intervention programs and policies from a public health perspective.

Institute Highlights:

• National and international participants representing multiple disciplines
• Mentoring by leading experts
• Course credit available through the Colorado School of Public Health
• Research seminars and lectures from experts in the field

The last day to register is July 14, 2023. (There is a fee; scholarships may be available.)
