Teresa ScheidProfessor
Department of Sociology

I am a full professor in the Department of Sociology with joint appointments in Public Policy and Health Services Research. [read more=’Read more’ less=’Read less’] I also work with doctoral students in Public Health and Health Psychology. My research focuses on the organization and delivery of mental health services and the work of mental health and HIV providers. I have examined the impact of a number of legislative mandates including outpatient commitment, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and state level efforts to reform mental health care. I have worked collaboratively with local agencies to develop and conduct cross-training workshops to help integrate mental health, substance use, and physical healthcare, and have been involved in a number of community based initiatives designed to integrate diverse systems of care for minority populations living with HIV/AIDS (see my 2015 book, Comprehensive Care for HIV/AIDS: Community-Based Strategies). I am senior editor (with Eric Wright) of the “Handbook for the Study of Mental Health: Social Contexts, Theories, and Systems”, and am currently working on a book on community mental health care. I advise doctoral students across all of the health related graduate programs on campus, and have worked with them to get their work published (including a recent book with Stephany De Scisciolo, “Reducing Race Differences in Direct-to-Consumer Pharmaceutical Advertising: The Case for Regulation”). I have also served as Executive Director of the Health Academy, the first UNC-C Academy, which is designed to foster collaborations across campus as well as within the community.
