#UNCSSW Dean Ramona Denby-Brinson, along with @Chapin_Hall's Holly White-Wolfe, examined data from 347 counties that found significant associations between community adversity and foster care entry.
Their model suggests the need to reconsider how policies affect neglect-related foster care entries, instead focusing on how community hardship, especially for poor and minority communities, is associated with neglect and child removal.
Their work was recently published in the March 2026 edition of the Journal of Public Child Welfare.

The study, published in the January 2026 edition of Addictive Behaviors, found that biracial adolescents start using substances at higher or intermediate rates when compared to their peers, underscoring the importance of moving away from a โone-size-fits-allโ prevention strategy.
The publication was part of Goingsโ @NIH/@NIDAnews R01 grant where she served as principal investigator.
