Larissa Gaias, Ph.D.
Larissa Gaias' research examines how school contexts can better support the development of students who have been historically marginalized, particularly youth of color and youth affected by violence. She focuses on integrating an equity lens into the development, implementation, and evaluation of school-based social-emotional, behavioral, and mental health interventions to reduce pervasive racial/ethnic disparities in educational outcomes.
