Research Interests

Dr. Morrow’s research interests are in critical health policy with foci on the following five themes: 1) Mental health reform, service provision and access to health services, 2) Mental health and social inequity, 3) Mental health, citizen engagement and social justice, 4) Neoliberal reforms, gender and health and, 5) feminist intersectional theory and approaches in mental health.The goals of her research are:
·         To better understand the social, political and institutional processes through which health and mental health policies and practices are developed and how social and health inequities are sustained or attenuated for different populations.
·         To develop interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral research approaches to mental health services and policy research through unique research involvement models.
·         To contribute to the development of theoretical frameworks and new models for mental health policy and program development, with the goal of improving mental health care and mental health outcomes for diverse populations.

Dr. Morrow strongly supports public scholarship and collaborative research partnerships with community-based organizations, health care practitioners, advocates and policy decision makers. Her research has been published in a wide range of academic journals including, Studies for Social Justice, The Journal of Critical Social Policy and the Canadian Journal for Community Mental Health.
