Dr. Beth Stormshak has been a faculty member at the University of Oregon for 25 years. Her research interests span the fields of both education and prevention science, including family-centered prevention of problem behavior, academic risk, and later mental health problems in children. Her intervention research has primarily targeted at-risk and high-risk families, with a focus on enhancing parenting skills and behavioral management to reduce later mental health outcomes. She has been funded to study these issues by the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Education, and the Centers for Disease Control. Her work on the Family Check-Up® intervention model focuses on dissemination and implementation in community settings, as well as the development of an online version for wide-scale dissemination in community health settings and schools.
