I am an Associate Professor at Brown University Warren Alpert Medical School and a licensed clinical psychologist with specialized training in adolescent forensic psychology. My specific expertise focuses on forensic psychology and adolescent development, as well as treatment development and implementation with systems-involved youth. As Director of the Mental Health Clinic at the Rhode Island Family Court (RIFC), I oversee research, court-ordered evaluations, and treatment services for court-involved youth involved in the child welfare or juvenile legal systems.
As a Principal Investigator and Co-Investigator on several NIH-funded grants, I have established a strong relationship with local collaborators within the court and juvenile legal systems that are essential for the successful recruitment and tracking of participants over the course of research studies. First, I am interested in the implementation of brief suicide interventions within systems including juvenile legal and child welfare settings to improve outcomes for underserved youth at high-risk for suicide ideation and behaviors (K23MH111606; PI Kemp; R34MH114307 MPIs: Kemp and Spirito). Second, I am also interested in the dissemination and implementation of evidenced-based suicide intervention programs by developing a sustainable training curriculum for clincians in the community working with this vulnerable group of young people (R01MH129770, R01 MH129770-02S1; MPIs Kemp and Wolff). I have also collaborated with colleagues to develop and implement substance use intervention studies with juvenile legal system-involved youth and their families (R34DA04227 and R01DA043596 PI: Spirito).

Project Title: Implementing a Brief Suicide Intervention for High Risk Youth with Front-Line Juvenile Justice Staff
National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)
A youth’s contact with the juvenile justice system represents an opportune moment for suicide screening and brief suicide intervention for indicated youth. This study will provide data on the novel implementation of an evidence-based brief suicide intervention, safety planning, administered by front-line juvenile court staff for suicidal court-involved non-incarcerated youth. Data will inform the dissemination and implementation of suicide brief interventions to be delivered by front-line staff at the time of mental health screening in the juvenile justice system.

Project Title: Computer-Assisted Brief Intervention Protocol for Marijuana Using Juvenile Offenders
Role: Co-Investigator
National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA)
The study will examine the feasibility of integrating a BMI for marijuana using CINI adolescents and their parents into juvenile intake procedures at the Rhode Island Family Court (RIFC). The study will also examine the preliminary efficacy of a counselor-delivered versus computer-delivered BMI addressing adolescent marijuana use as well as parenting factors that may be contributing to such use among court involved families.

Role: MPI
National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)
This study will examine the feasibility and acceptability of a program designed to conduct safety planning with youth in the juvenile justice system who are at risk for a suicide attempt and/or self-injury and to increase the possibility of them receiving outpatient mental health treatment. After training staff in the intervention, we will pilot test the safety planning intervention and gather information on how well it worked on reducing self-harm, getting families to follow up with referrals for mental health care, and how often they attend treatment.

Title: Drug Use and HIV/STI Risk Trajectories among Court-Involved, Non-Incarcerated Youth
National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA)
Role: Site PI/Project Director
The purpose of this NIDA R01 is to conduct a longitudinal epidemiological study of 400 first-time court-involved, non-incarcerated (CINI) juvenile offenders and their primary caregiver to measure and describe 24 month trajectories of juvenile substance use, HIV/STI risk behavior, psychiatric symptoms and recidivism from point of initial court contact. Ecodevelopmental theory will guide the consideration and assessment of other relevant factors that may mediate or moderate two-year juvenile trajectories.

The purpose of this NIDA administrative supplement (to NIDA R01DA034538) study is to examine sex/gender differences between male and female first-time court-involved, non-incarcerated (CINI) juvenile offenders in: 1) sexual risk and substance use behaviors and 2)accessibility and acceptability of HIV and other STI, family planning and pregnancy prevention programming. Data will be used to inform the development of court-based gender-responsive integrated HIV/STI and pregnancy prevention interventions and to improve CINI girls’ engagement in sexual health prevention, treatment, care and support services.
