Here at The CRIB, we recognize the importance of collaborating with community based agencies, service organizations,
survivors of homicide victims and interdisciplinary scholars throughout our global community to advance culturally responsive research,
​policy and practice.We are currently involved in a number of local and international initiatives relevant to homicide, violence and victimization.

The need for valid measures that capture the racial and culturally bound manifestation of homicide related grief for African American survivors of homicide victims led to the development of the Inventory of Coping for African American Survivors of Homicide Victims (ICAASHV). Designed to assess the origins and types of coping strategies used by African American survivors of homicide victims, this project examined the validity of the ICAASHV and assessed potential associations between coping with homicide violence, mental, behavioral health and well-being outcomes for African American adults​.
