Project Description:
The proposed research study’s central hypothesis is that ACEs disproportionally impacts first-generation students’ graduation rates. The proposed research study is designed to build on observations the PI made while implementing intervention programs: high trauma rates were reported by first-generation students. This project will empirically investigate this clinical observation.
