Faculty Associates

NLRC Faculty Associates collaborate with NLRC staff in research project development and implementation; providing specialized expertise and consultation; partnering on program evaluations and needs assessment; and helping establish the research agenda for the NLRC.

Current Faculty Associates have contributed in conducting focus groups, development of proposals, presenting research findings in NLRC-sponsored events, participating in community-organized committees, and collaborating in community service learning projects. Our current NLRC Faculty Associates are concentrated in various academic departments.
