We have organized the list alphabetically, by the individual’s unit within the University of Miami, by the geographic area in which they conduct their work, and by scholarly focus area. The directory is searchable using the Ctrl + F function. We extend our appreciation to the scholars on this list who responded to requests for their information. This would not have been possible without all of their cooperation and we hope that this directory serves as a useful resource to our University and Miami communities. We are indebted to our El Centro Student Assistant, Olutola Ogunrinde, and to the El Centro Community Engagement, Dissemination, and Implementation Core Coordinator, John Salerno for their dedication in putting together the directory. Finally, we give our appreciation to our colleagues in the Miami Clinical and Translational Science Institute and the School of Education and Human Development, particularly Dr. Guerda Nicolas, who collaborated with us on the first iteration of the directory. The list of scholars in the directory is by no means exhaustive, and we know that many individuals may not be represented in this directory who should be.

  • Bringing Light Into the Darkness
    Bringing Light into the Darkness 2017 Report to the Community Dear Friends: In the two decades since The Melissa Institute was founded, our world has transformed dramatically. Today there are 117,000 gun deaths in the U.S. each year. The largest mass shooting in modern America’s history occurred in June, just one day after the murder of singer Christina Grimmie and a few weeks after the Brock Turner rape case began gaining national attention. With the rise of social media, we are bombarded daily with every detail and perspective surrounding these tragic events. At The Melissa Institute, our goal is to provide the latest resources on various forms of violence prevention. From there, we offer research-based information and interventions, formulating next steps to make our world a safer place. We become stronger when we stand together in an unwavering commitment to peace. We must face adversity head-on. To quote Desmond Tutu, “Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.” The history of the world is shaped by those of us who dare make a difference. For 20 years, with the help of our supporters, The Melissa Institute has been funding research-based knowledge and developing training programs and conferences to prevent violence. We have trained health professionals, school counselors, parents and other members of our Miami-Dade community with programs like ACT (Adults and Children Together) Raising Safe Kids. We have hosted annual bullying prevention conferences for fourth and fifth graders throughout Miami-Dade, as well as developed conferences on multidimensional topics of concern, featuring leading experts from our Scientific Board.

It offers a common framework and flexible guide to decision makers across the university and, as such, should foster greater coherence, coordination, and unity. At the same time, however, it is designed to be adaptable enough to leave significant room for individual academic units to pursue excellence in ways important to those particular units.2 Albizu University has previously developed two strategic plans that address many topics discussed in its current strategic plan: 1.
