We have a new Featured Scholar of the Month – Helen Russette! Helen is an NCRE Scholar and a post-doctoral researcher at the Center for American Indian Health in the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health. As part of her dissertation, she was able to spend almost two years developing a relationship with the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes to conduct a study on identifying and measuring resilience factors among young children with and without prenatal substance exposure. This relationship-building phase of their study was recently published by the Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse. Way to go Helen!

We want to share the exciting news that NCRE Scholars Drs. Jerreed Ivanich and Katie Schultz (Cohort 6) were awarded a grant by NIDA for the Tribal Reservations Adolescent Connections Study. This project grew out of their time together as NCRE Scholars. This mixed-methods social network study will explore the peer and family relationships of American Indian (AI) youth, and how they factor in substance use, exposure to violence and su***de among youth living on a Northern Plains reservation. Congratulations Jerreed and Katie, we’re so happy to hear about this important work and your continued collaboration!
