Working to improve the health and well-being in West Virginia through community-engaged research and evaluation.
The West Virginia Prevention Research Center's efforts in applied research, evaluation and program support are centered around three critical areas: state partnerships, substance use and youth and community resilience.
Growing up in Morgantown, West Virginia University was the obvious college choice for Eva Cicci and Colton Sanders. Now, as they prepare to graduate in May, the two School of Public Health students are ready to start a new journey, expanding on the impact they’ve already made through their experiences serving communities across the state.
The West Virginia Prevention Research Center is supported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cooperative agreement number DP006391 and is committed to conducting applied prevention research, as well as supporting a wide variety of public health efforts across the state.
