A Dual Inoculation Approach to Alcohol Prevention Among African American Youth
Role: Principal Investigator
NIAAA(R01AA021774)$3,307,65212/10/12-11/30/17
The most common approach to preventing alcohol use involves providing a well-designed program in preadolescence just prior to or upon entering middle school. This approach does not have long-lasting effects or address the risk factors that lead many youth to use alcohol in high school. We propose to test a strategy that compares offering effective programs at the transition to middle school and the transition to high school with only offering a program at either one of the transitions or no programs at all.
Home-based Prevention for African American Families in Rural Communities
Role: Co-Principal InvestigatorPrincipal Investigator: Steven R. H. Beach.
NICHD (R01HD069439)$2,665,3541/1/12- 12/30/16

HIV-Related Behavior Among Rural African American, Young Adult Men
Role: Principal Investigator
NIDA(R01DA029488)$2,154,7011/1/11-12/30/16

Role: Co-Principal InvestigatorPrincipal Investigator: Gene H. Brody
NIDA (P30 DA027827)$5,964,48410/1/09-9/30/2014
The overall aim of the Transdisciplinary Center is to conduct research that will transform etiologic models of drug use and sexual risk behavior and the prevention programs they inform, in general and those for rural African American children, youth, and families in particular. Its overarching goal is to use findings from gene-environment (G-E) interplay, developmental, and epigenetic research to achieve this aim.
The Strong African American Families Dissemination Model
Role: Co-Principal InvestigatorPrincipal Investigator: Gene H. Brody.
NIAAA(R01 AA018580) $3,609,5639/1/2009-8/31/2014

The purpose of this study is to conduct an economic evaluation of the Strong African American Families–Teen (SAAF–T) program. A developmentally appropriate adaptation of the efficacious SAAF drug abuse prevention program for elementary school youth, SAAF–T is based on 15 years of longitudinal research with rural African American families and extensive community input.
Contextual Processes and Rural African American Emerging Adults
Role: Co-Principal InvestigatorPrincipal Investigator: Gene H. Brody
NICHD (R01 HD030588)$3,120,5295/1/2008-4/31/2013
The goal of this study is to examine the influence of stressors experienced by rural African Americans during the transition to adulthood on their use of substances, psychological well-being, and allostatic load, a physiological measure of stress response.
Completed
Preventing Substance Use and Risky Behaviors Among Rural African American Youth
Role: Co-Principal InvestigatorPrincipal Investigator: Gene H. Brody
NIDA (R01 DA021736-01)$3,766,3829/30/2006-5/31/2012
The goal of this study is to test a family-based preventive intervention designed to deter substance use and risky sexual behavior among rural African American high school students. All participants will be randomly assigned to an intervention or attention-control condition and participate in baseline, posttest, and long-term follow-up assessments.
Strong African American Fathers in Healthy Marriages: A Randomized Controlled Trial with Rural Families
Role: Co-Principal InvestigatorPrincipal Investigator: Steven R. H. Beach
Admin. for Child. & Fam. (90OJ2023)$2,467,6529/30/2006- 9/29/2011

The goal of this study is to investigate the predictors of HPV vaccination compliance among rural African American mothers and their daughters.
Preventing Alcohol Use Among African American Youths
Role: Co-Principle InvestigatorPrincipal Investigator: Gene H. Brody.
NIAAA (R01AA012768)$2,981,3849/30/2005-8/31/2010
The goal of this study is to examine long-term changes in rural African American adolescents’ risk behavior as a result of participation in the Strong African American Families prevention program at age 11. Three annual follow-up assessments will be administered to15- to 17-year-old adolescents.
Preventing Drug Use in Rural African Americans
Role: Co-Principle InvestigatorPrincipal Investigator: Gene H. Brody.
NIDA (R01DA019230)$3,141,9559/30/2004-8/31/2009
The goal of this study is to prevent drug use among rural African American emerging adults. Pre-intervention, post-intervention, and follow-up assessments of key study constructs will be administered to the entire sample of high school seniors in rural areas.
HIV Risk Behavior in Out-of-School Rural African American Young Adults
Role: Principal Investigator
NIDA(R21DA020418)$372,2606/1/2006-5/31/2008
The goal of this study is twofold. First, we will test an innovative strategy to recruit hard-to-reach young adults who are at risk for contracting HIV. Second, we will test a heuristic model of the factors that predict high-risk sexual behavior among rural African American young adults who are not attending school during the transition to adulthood.
Informal Mentoring, Rural African American Emerging Adults, and Substance Use
Role: Co-Principal InvestigatorPrincipal Investigator: Gene H. Brody
W. T. Grant Foundation$500,0001/1/2006-12/31/2008
We propose to assess the value added to a family-based program designed to prevent substance use among rural African emerging adults by the inclusion of training for informal mentors. The Mentor Training will be implemented as an experimental condition added to a randomized prevention trial funded by NIDA.
