Barbara Lee, PhD (she/her/hers)

Assistant Professor
University of British Columbia
Vancouver, BC, Canada

Barbara Lee is an Assistant Professor in the School of Social Work, Director of the Centre for the Study of Services to Children and Families, and Knowledge Exchange and Mobilization Scholar at the University of British Columbia, Canada. Barbara was the 2016 recipient of the Council of Social Work Education (CSWE) Transforming Child Welfare Dissertation Award for her research entitled “Examining child welfare outcomes for Asian-Canadian children and families: A mixed methods study”. Barbara’s research is informed by her direct practice experience as a youth worker for new immigrant youth, child and youth care counselor in residential group home settings, and as a frontline child protection worker providing intervention for children and youth who have experienced or at risk of child maltreatment. Barbara uses community-based program evaluation, administrative data, survey designs, and mixed methods approaches to examine social service processes and outcomes, and to promote evidence-informed practices with children, youth, and families. Barbara is the founding editor-in-chief for the open-access e-journal Research and Evaluation in Child, Youth, and Family Services to encourage dialogue and advancing impactful research to promote positive change in child, youth, and family services.
