The UCSF-ZSFG JJBH research team engages in a program of research that incorporates epidemiological/observation, behavioral intervention efficacy trial, and structural-level approaches to understanding how to improve behavioral health (HIV and sexually transmitted infections risk, psychiatric symptoms, substance use), legal (recidivism) outcomes for publicly (Medi-Cal) insured and/or systems-involved youth and young adults.

The primary functions of this position will be on digital health, behavioral health, and navigator related projects. Example studies include evaluating a digital health app for foster youth that provides mental health and resource navigation services; developing a Less Restrictive Program (LRP) for youth detained in Secure Youth Treatment Facility (SYTF) programs who are interested in pursuing higher education; and assessing the impact of structural racism on the health outcomes of justice-involved youth.
