As a hub for interdisciplinary research and collaboration, UCSUR promotes a research agenda focused on the social, economic and health issues most relevant to our society. UCSUR maintains a permanent research infrastructure available to faculty and the community with the capacity to: (1) conduct all types of survey research, including complex web surveys; (2) carry out regional econometric modeling; (3) analyze qualitative data using state‐of‐the‐art computer methods, including web‐based studies; (4) obtain, format, and analyze spatial data; (5) acquire, manage, and analyze large secondary and administrative data sets including Census data; and (6) design and carry out descriptive, evaluation, and intervention studies. UCSUR plays a critical role in the development of new research projects through consultation with faculty investigators. The long‐term goals of UCSUR fall into three broad domains: (1) provide state‐of‐the‐art research and support services for investigators interested in interdisciplinary research in the behavioral, social, and clinical sciences; (2) develop nationally recognized research programs within the Center in a few selected areas; and (3) support the teaching mission of the University through graduate student, post‐ doctoral, and junior faculty mentoring, teaching courses on research methods in the social sciences, and providing research internships to undergraduate and graduate students.

Many different life paths intersect at this location: people of widely varying ages, nationalities, and perspectives all call this community home. By encouraging dialogue between these groups, rather than division, Grounded believes that East Hills Consensus Group (EHCG) can step to the forefront of leadership within this neighborhood. In the Summer of 2018, the East Hills Consensus Group was chosen as a partner in Grounded’s Resilience Generation program. The EHCG identified a range of specific challenges that were facing the East Hills, and was seeking technical assistance to better address those challenges. The key issues they identified were: Community Beautification, Stormwater Management, and Public Safety. Organizational Capacity, as a factor that related to all of EHCG’s efforts was also identified as an important focus. Through a series of community engagement events, Grounded’s staff had the pleasure of Executive becoming acquainted with many different members of the East Hills community. By meeting residents within their comfort zone, we were able to talk frankly about concerns within the Summary neighborhood. Because of this outreach, we were able to more precisely understand needs within the community.
