DURHAM, N.H. (AP) - University of New Hampshire researchers have received a four-year grant to continue its work helping schools and communities in South Dakota implement programs to reduce violence.
The $1.8 million grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevent will focus on schools in Rapid City, South Dakota. The project will be led by UNH researchers in South Dakota.
Team leader Katie Edwards, an assistant psychology professor, says the grant will allow researchers to take the lessons they’ve learned from work with New Hampshire schools and communities and collaborate with those on the front lines in other places.
She says innovative work being done on the ground in Rapid City ultimately could be replicated across the country.
