Red Deer Polytechnic recently announced that it will partner with the Central Alberta Child Advocacy Centre on a new research project. RDP instructors and students will collaborate with the advocacy centre to explore avenues for joint research. A variety of research topics are being considered, including questions pertaining to the root causes of child abuse and how to better support children who are overcoming trauma. RDP Associate Dean of Teaching, Learning, and Research Dr Alison Jeppesen said that the project “builds on a long history at RDP in which faculty, across disciplines, have worked with community partners to apply their expertise to real world solutions.”
