Misa Kayama, MSW, PhD

Associate Professor
University of Mississippi
University, MS, United States

Misa Kayama, PhD, MSW, is an associate professor of social work at the University of Mississippi. She received PhD in social work at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and worked as a Postdoctoral Associate at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities. Her research focuses on the sociocultural shaping of children’s experience of stigmatization due to disability and other intersectional issues, such as race and immigration status, in the U.S. and Asian countries through cross-cultural, ethnographic approaches and cultural analysis of policies. Her recent focus is on children’s own voices of stigmatization due to their disabilities at school, which informs child-centered, stigma-sensitive programs of support. The findings have been published in a number of peer-reviewed journals and two academic books.
