Bio<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Dr. Elissa Monteiro is a post-doctoral research fellow in the HCFD Lab. After the completion of a multi-site internship at the University of California Irvine (UCI) Center for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Disorders and a nonpublic school designed for students with ADHD and Autism, Elissa graduated with her PhD in School Psychology from the University of California Riverside. Through Elissa\u2019s years of practical experiences in the school system, and within community-based clinics supporting families of children with neurodevelopmental disorders, Elissa has become acutely aware of the compounded challenges involving school-based implementation of evidence-based psychosocial interventions. She has observed firsthand the frustration experienced by parents and teachers who are not served well by the educational system, particularly for marginalized youth and the adults who support them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Research Interests<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Elissa\u2019s research investigates the implementation of feasible and sustainable school-based psychosocial interventions that support youth with attention and behavior challenges. She is particularly interested in the design and delivery of parent and teacher training interventions. Elissa is also interested in the adoption of community-based participatory research and use of implementation science to develop school- and community- based psychoeducational programs for parents, teachers, and school mental health professionals so that they too can design toolboxes to better support the children around them.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n
