Investigating State, Community, and School-Level Factors that Contribute to Adverse Childhood Experiences in Schools Across Virginia: A Report for the United Way of Southwest Virginia

This was a group research project done by me and three other undergraduate students in collaboration with United Way of Southwest Virginia. It was required course work for a Qualitative Research Methods Class. I worked heavily on the methods section as well as organizing when and where data was received. I helped manage our shared google sheet where we complied all of our websites and articles, helped convey our findings and methodology and edited the final paper.
