A team of researchers in the College of Arts and Sciences at Indiana University Bloomington (IUB) have received a $300,000 grant from the Humana Foundation to advance a groundbreaking study on youth suicide prevention in schools.
The study will be led by Anna Mueller, the Luther Dana Waterman Associate Professor of Sociology within the College at IUB, with collaborators Natasha Chaku, Assistant Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences within the College, Hank Green, Associate Professor of Applied Health Science in IUB’s School of Public Health, and Professor Jonathan Singer of Loyola University Chicago.
Their research aims to improve emotional connectedness between school staff and students as a core strategy for reducing youth suicide.
