Parents please participate in this study. Research in our community, by community members is SO VALUABLE, and helps to build resources and solutions. It can help to shape policy and inform Health and Human Services.
Your voice and the voice of Your children is so important.

Parents of Black high schoolers, this one’s for you!
We’re conducting a new study to help center the voices of Black youth in how identity is understood, supported, and celebrated.
Study Title: Exploring the Martin Model of Identity
Development
Who: Black youth currently in grades 9-12
What: A virtual 1-on-1 interview + brief survey (total time:
~90 minutes)
Compensation: $50 Amazon gift card
Where: 100% virtual
Why: Because their voice matters. And it’s time the world caught up.
This study is part of building the Martin Model of Identity-a theory rooted in the realities of Black youth, not outdated checklists or whitewashed ideas of development.
If you’re a parent, caregiver, educator-or you know a Black teen who should be part of this-comment “IDENTITY” and we’ll DM you the link to the parental consent form.
(We DM the link-so bots, fall back!)
Let’s center our youth. Let’s build the research they deserve.
