COMMUNITY OUTREACH
This page highlights our efforts toward disseminating our research and making findings accessible to communities far and wide!
Connecting Research to Real Life
At The Hamilton Lab, we believe that research should not stay behind closed doors. Each year, our team actively engages with the broader community to share mental health resources, evidence-based tools, and insights from our research. We’re committed to ensuring that our work serves and uplifts our communities!
So What Are Outreach Events and Community Workshops?
Our team regularly delivers interactive workshops and presentations to schools, youth programs, families, and professionals (teachers, clinicians, etc), bridging our lab’s research with the real-world needs of the communities we serve. These sessions are designed and led by all members of our study team, including Dr. Hamilton, graduate students, lab coordinators, and undergraduate students (as appropriate).

Each year at Rutgers Day, our lab sets up interactive booths and distributes resources that help families, teens, and educators better understand mental health, social media use, and sleep. We use this opportunity to spark conversations, answer questions, and share our work in accessible ways.
The Importance of Disseminating Our Research
We take pride in creating a safe, engaging, and educational environment that encourages open conversation, questions, and reflection. Each workshop is adapted to meet the unique needs of the audience.
We'd be more than happy to bring our research to you!
