Dr. Grange comes to CSU after completing her post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Georgia’s Center for Family Research. Trained as a clinical and community psychologist, she works to understand how ecological influences (e.g., exposure to community stress, family socialization, and romantic partner dynamics) influence the well-being and/or risk-related behaviors affecting youth and families, with a particular interest in people of African descent. She enjoys learning about and teaching strategies for effective program development and evaluation efforts. She looks forward to teaching and mentoring CSU students in a manner that promotes their ability to be productive professionals promoting the best mental health outcomes for the people in the communities they serve.
