About
Dr. Adams is a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology. Her research interests center around economic justice for survivors of intimate partner abuse, and evaluating community-based domestic abuse victim service programs. Dr. Adams' current research focuses on the impact of abuse on women's employment. Specifically, she is investigating the economic and mental health impacts of job instability for survivors of intimate partner abuse. In addition to this research, Dr. Adams is also conducting an evaluation of the Survivor's Giving Circle, a community-based program designed to provide direct monetary assistance to survivors of intimate partner abuse. The goal of this innovative program is to provide survivors with financial assistance as a means of overcoming financial barriers to economic security.
