Irwin Sandler, PhD, ASU, is a Research Professor at Arizona State University and a REACH Institute Scientist. His research is focused on the development, evaluation, and dissemination of intervention programs to promote resilience in children and families experiencing major life stressors. Dr. Sandler and his colleagues have conducted research on the development of programs for divorced families (New Beginnings Program) and for bereaved families (Family Bereavement Program). Their research has found encouraging evidence that these programs promote healthy child adjustment including lower rates of substance abuse, depression, continuing distressing grief, and externalizing problems and that these effects last up to 15 years following family participation in the programs.
