Resource Core

Led by Yo Jackson, Ph.D. (Penn State Psychology) with Co-Investigator Brian Allen, Ph.D. (Penn State Pediatrics, Psychiatry and Behavioral Health), the The Resource Core ensures that TCCMS research has the infrastructure and support needed to succeed. It provides technical assistance, project coordination, data management, and innovative communication strategies to amplify the reach and relevance of TCCMS findings. The core is also responsible for building a robust dissemination platform to connect research with both professional and public audiences.

• Aim 1: Provide centralized resources to support TCCMS projects, including data management, research methods expertise, and clinical support.
• Aim 2: Develop an integrated communication strategy to disseminate research findings to diverse audiences, leveraging digital platforms to increase accessibility and impact.
• Aim 3: Create a dynamic, multi-layered information hub to share the latest child maltreatment research with practitioners, policymakers, and the public.
