Safer Spaces: Creating a more supportive rehabilitation environment for gay, transgendered and questioning youth is collaboration between faculty in Recreation and Leisure Studies, Counseling Psychology and the Augusta Youth Detention Center Campus, centered on assessing and meeting the needs of staff and adjudicated youth in relation to gay identity development. Given the predominantly African American makeup of YDC youth, the intersection of racial identity development will also be addressed. Dr. Johnson (Recreation and Leisure Studies) and Dr. Delgado-Romero (Counseling-Psychology) will work with two Counseling-Psychology doctoral students to develop a resource program to address the needs of LGBT and question youth and also involve graduate students from a RLST 7130 (Experiential Education) to develop and implement social justice/cultural competency training for the staff of the facility. This project aims to meet an expressed need of the State agency while at the same time creating opportunities for service, outreach, service-learning, and research.
