Shawn Teresa Flanigan, Ph.D
Researcher and Educator
I am deeply interested in how vulnerable populations go about finding the assistance they need, and how individuals and organizations provide that assistance.
I am an interdisciplinary social scientist trained in public administration and policy.
My research focuses on ways in which health and human service needs of minoritized people, low-income populations, and other vulerable groups are addressed by state and non-state organizations.
My teaching focuses on supporting students and stakeholders to engage in effective program design, policy development, and advocacy for more just and equitable communities.

I have conducted field research and education/training in southern Africa, south Asia, Europe, the SWANA (MENA) region, North America, and the Pacific Islands.
