We’re proud to share that Dr. Michele Schutz recently presented her research at the Evidence in Action event hosted by the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign School of Social Work. Alongside her team, she presented “Systems Collaboration: Transition Age Foster Youth and Vocational Rehabilitation.”

This impactful event brought together leaders from across many fields to engage in meaningful discussion and action planning focused on integrating research into child welfare training and practice. We’re excited to see this important work contributing to stronger systems and better outcomes for youth with disabilities in the child welfare system.
