Kimberly Zammitt joins us beginning in the 2007-08 academic year from Mississippi, where she most recently served as clinical social worker and training specialist for Jackson State University. This position included clinical work with individuals, families, and groups, along with supervision of field students and training of professional staff. Prior to that Kim worked as a therapist coordinator at a child and adolescent day treatment program. Kim will be an important addition to the direct practice component of our MSW program, teaching some of the advanced courses in working in micro practice and bringing to us the benefit of her experience in rural social work service delivery. Her MSW is from the University of Southern Mississippi and she is about to finish her PhD from Jackson State University. Make sure you ask her about her interesting dissertation methodology on implicit attitudes measurement! Her other research interests are on gay and lesbian parenting and child wellbeing, and critical incident stress management.
