R is for Thursday
R is for Thursday (R4T) is a research-led effort that, through state and national
initiatives, equips individuals to support foster youth/alumni and other traditionally
hidden populations who are college-bound, in college or college graduates.
National Conference
The National Conference for Engaged Scholarship on Hidden Student Populations brings
together diverse researchers and practitioners to consider current scholarship and
to form multidisciplinary research teams for empirical research studies to be conducted
in the 18 months following the conference.
Graduate Certificate in Hidden Student Populations
This certificate is framed by the last decade of emerging research, which aims to
better understand shared topics across hidden populations, including specific needs,
challenges and opportunities for support.
Speaking engagements
We are available to provide learning opportunities for high school and college-age
students, communities and other groups.
