Research
Family well-being of low-income households including family health, access to healthcare, food security, economic well-being, and parenting. My current research projects include a multi-state longitudinal research project, Rural Families Speak about Health, which examines interactions of individual, family, community, and policy contexts on the mental, physical, and dental health of diverse rural, low-income families and Core Health Message Project, which creates and disseminates culturally appropriate health messages to rural, low-income mothers.
