Assistant Professor
Colorado State University, United States
Tiffany M. Jones is an Assistant Professor at the School of Social Work at Colorado State University. Dr. Jones worked for seven years in community mental health as an art therapist and supervisor in the diverse communities of Los Angeles. Her research is informed by experience supervising and implementing evidence-based practices in diverse communities, motivating her to build bridges between research and practice through partnerships with community organizations. Dr. Jones’s research takes a transdisciplinary approach to the study of behavioral health interventions and organizational practice to intervene and interrupt institutional structures that reproduce racial inequity, particularly in the school context. Her program of research is composed of three primary components: 1) deepening knowledge of how evidence-based prevention and treatment programs consider cultural and racial difference and the social justice implications of implementing these programs, 2) the development of community-based research-practice partnerships and data-informed systems focused on promoting racial equity, and 3) etiological research on the social environment on behavioral health over the life course to inform intervention development.
