For Molly Ruiz, pursuing a doctorate at Lehigh University is both a major professional milestone and a return to her roots. Originally from the Lehigh Valley and currently residing in Central Pennsylvania, Ruiz is a part-time student in the Special Education Ph.D. program, balancing graduate studies with her professional life.

Ruiz' academic pursuits are informed by her career background in school counseling. Working on the frontlines of student support sparked her passion for inclusive education and shaped her current research focus: preparing school counselors to better support K-12 students with disabilities. By investigating how to equip counselors with the right tools and training, Ruiz aims to foster more inclusive, responsive school environments that serve the needs of every learner.

When she was selecting a doctoral program, Lehigh University’s College of Education (COE) stood out as the clear choice. Ruiz was drawn to the university by its prestigious academic reputation and the program's strong emphasis on developing high-level research skills. Read more at https://bit.ly/4z6O5V5

Check out Vanesa Mora Ringle's op-ed now live on PennLive. Mental health care relies on complex human conversations that are often complicated by cultural and linguistic barriers. Rather than simply using technology to speed up treatment, Mora Ringle believes the use of AI in mental health should focus on bridging these gaps to make care more equitable and human.

Mora Ringle, assistant professor in the COE's Counseling Psychology program, and her colleagues are working on an AI tool they hope will accomplish just that. Read more at https://bit.ly/47u16MB.

Lehigh University College of Education’s Community Voices Clinic (CVC) has expanded to Marvine Elementary School, giving the school-based mental health clinic three locations serving children and families in the Bethlehem community.

The new Marvine Elementary School location joins the clinic’s established sites at Donegan Elementary School and Broughal Middle School. The expansion represents the latest chapter for a program that has provided mental health services in partnership with the Bethlehem community for more than a decade.

“As the year starts, our main operational focus has been successfully launching our new site at Marvine Elementary School,” said Cheré D. Hunter, director of the Community Voices Clinic and professor of practice in Lehigh’s College of Education. “We’re currently working through the initial transition phase to make sure all three of our locations are fully aligned, supported, and running efficiently. It’s an exciting chapter of growth for the clinic, and I’m looking forward to what we accomplish across all three sites this year.” Read more on the COE News site at https://bit.ly/4xF1DWM
