Undergraduate Student Research Assistant

Reporting to the Director, Center for Ethics Education and the Program Administrator, Center for Ethics Education, this student will collaborate with Fordham staff, public organizations, and community organizers on a community-engaged research project within Fordham’s Bronx Research Institute for Community Solutions (BRICS), titled, “Shared Spaces, Shared Solutions: Using Community Narratives and Data to Reduce Survival-Based Drug Use and Homelessness and Create Shared Enjoyment.” 

The project combines community-based research with data analysis to better understand causes and patterns of public drug use in and around East Tremont’s Echo Park in the Bronx, NY. The student will support qualitative research activities, stakeholder engagement, data collection and analysis, community Share Back events, and the development of policy recommendations.
