Research Collaboration Opportunity For Schools and Families
We need you to be a collaborator with us, Massey University, New Zealand Red Cross on the The Worry Bug Project. Since 2015 Massey University, under the leadership of Benita Stiles-Smith, has been conducting research on The Worry Bug Project. Over this time the researchers have been looking at the efficacy of the project, best practice for uptake of community resources and the use of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire tool for classroom assessment. Contribute to disaster recovery research. With the many natural disasters that are occurring in New Zealand and globally, this research may inform how agencies and the government work with families and schools in future situations. Schools, Early Childhood Education centres and families will be given the opportunity to opt-in to participating in the research in 2019. Please consider participating and look out for more information about being a part of it. |
