Faculty Member & PhD Student Receive External Funding for Research
Dr. Peggy Stephens and Margaret Baughman have received funding for a three-year ($60K per year) Cleveland Drug Court Cannabis Youth Treatment Enhancement Grant (RFA No. TI-08-007). The grant is funded by the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment. Peggy and Margaret will begin collecting data from drug court enrollees to evaluate the process and outcomes for participants from 18 to 25 years old. The study focuses on male felony offenders diverted to substance abuse treatment from the Cleveland Municipal Court. The project will run through September of 2011. Congratulations Peggy and Margaret!
