Phoenix, AZ, United States
Dr. Justin S. Harty is an Assistant Professor at Arizona State University's School of Social Work. Dr. Harty's research centers on the experiences of young Black fathers exiting foster care, father involvement in child welfare, and the historical aspects of father-related services in social work. His interdisciplinary approach aims to improve services for fathers and families of color in home visiting, child welfare, and foster care. Fundamental to Dr. Harty's social justice work is his commitment to dismantling racism and colonialism within the social work profession. Dr. Harty mobilizes social change by using Black social work history to directly address white supremacy, racism, and colonialism while leveraging long-standing African traditions of self-help and mutual aid to help social workers and Black communities continue our resistance against oppression and inequality.
