Alicia C. Bunger studies how evidence-based practices and cross-system collaboration get implemented in behavioral health, mental health, and child welfare organizations. Her work examines the systems and strategies that help services like trauma screening, substance use treatment, and mental health care reach the people who need them, particularly children, families, and vulnerable populations. Much of her research develops and refines methods and frameworks used within the field of 'implementation science,' which studies how to get proven interventions actually adopted in real-world settings.
