Tanner LeBaron Wallace

Tanner LeBaron Wallace recently received her doctoral degree in Social Research Methodology from the Graduate School of Education & Information Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles. Prior to her doctoral studies, Tanner completed the Adolescent Risk & Prevention Master of Education program at Harvard University, worked as a community-based adolescent mental health case manager, and taught middle school language arts as a public school teacher. Her research interests focus on two distinct, but compatible, aspects of applied developmental psychology: the effectiveness of prevention programming in addressing the multiple barriers to positive development that at-risk adolescents face in school and community settings and the methods researchers use to assess program and policy effectiveness.
