Assistant Professor
University of British Columbia, School of Social Work
Barbara Lee is an Assistant Professor in the School of Social Work, Director of the Centre for the Study of Services to Children and Families, and Knowledge Exchange and Mobilization (KxM) Scholar at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver campus. Barbara’s research is informed by her direct practice experience as a youth worker for new immigrant youth and as a frontline child protection worker providing intervention for children and youth who have experienced or at risk of child maltreatment. Barbara uses community-based program evaluation, administrative data, survey designs, and mixed methods approaches to examine social service outcomes and to promote evidence-informed practices with children, youth, and families. As a KxM scholar, Barbara strives to build university-community partnerships in knowledge creation and exchange, and to disseminate and mobilize knowledge that will promote racial and social justice.
