Voith, MSW, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor of Social Work and a center affiliate of the Center on Trauma and Adversity at the Jack, Joseph, and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences. Leading the Healing, Empowerment, Antiviolence Research Team (HEART), Dr. Voith conducts applied and translational social work research to empower families and communities to live free of violence and shift the tide towards healthy relationships.

This research is applied to develop and enhance programs that serve youth, families, and communities.
