All together we volunteered over 60 hours at Arcata Elementary After School Program where we had to chance to interact with the staff and students. During this experience we were able to work one on one with some children as well as work/play with larger groups during "clubs". Being able to give our time to these children and focus on them for the few hours we were there was a very rewarding experience that we would like to share.

Between set rest intervals (RI) are one of the most important variables in resistance training; however, no known research has investigated the effects of RIs greater than 5-min during strength training. The purpose of this research was to examine the effects of three different RIs on training volume (TV) completed during a high-intensity bench press exercise. 15 resistance trained males completed 3 experimental sessions, during which 4 sets of the bench press were performed. Resistance trained males, with the goal of greater volume during strength training, would benefit from longer RIs. Specifically, using an 8-min RI between 4 consecutive sets of a bench press allows for a greater TV.

Humboldt State University received a two-year grant from the NCAA and the U.S. Department of Defense to expand upon the existing study that investigates concussive and repetitive head impacts in NCAA student-athletes. This collaboration is to further understand the neurobiopsychosocial nature of concussive injury and recovery to enhance the safety and health of our collegiate student-athletes, service members, youth sports participants and the broader public. At Humboldt State, researchers have conducted baseline and post injury monitoring of neurocognitive, motor control, and behavioral data in 638 athletes from all sports. The poster will have current results from the CARE consortium.

Project Rebound is a resource we are working to implement on HSU's campus for students who have been/are currently incarcerated. We have been networking with other campuses and organizations to create this center. Included will be research conducted about students re-entering to society and education. This will hopefully officially begin next semester, but we want to spread awareness of our program and connect with others who may be interested.

Current literature indicates the number of Veterans entering higher education is rapidly growing due to the reduction of military size and the availability of financial support through the Post-9/11 GI bill (Lang, et al., 2013; McBain, et al., 2012). Research shows the challenges student Veterans face can be reduced significantly when colleges incorporate support programs specific to student Veterans and provide training about military culture to faculty and staff (Bosari, et al, 2017; Osborne, 2014). The intention of this project was to increase awareness to the presence of military culture on the HSU campus through a training presentation.

End of Life, A Talking Circle Grief support groups are offered to the bereaved, after the death of a loved one, yet are rarely made available to those who have been given a terminal diagnosis. This vulnerable and under-serve population may greatly benefit from having an outlet for complex new emotions, the experience of connectedness, understanding and support from others who are facing their own mortality. The purpose of this project is to develop a pilot support group model serving individuals facing end of life to assess the demand for and value of such an intervention. Research on promising practices with support groups for terminally-ill patients was combined with a community-

This project aims to educate staff and participants in residential facilities about the practices of harm reduction through open dialogue. The essence of having this discussion is to highlight the ways in which these programs already implement these practices and can further develop harm reduction methods to best support their population. The topics are framed around the concepts of self awareness, safety (physical & emotional)concerns, best practices, and lasty defining harm reduction as whole through team building activities. By collectively choosing a harm reduction philosophy we can begin to address the risks and work together in developing safer and healthier ways to minimize harm.

The four of us volunteered for the HSUfit program. In this program we meet every Friday for three hours and try to work and be with the kids any way we can. We run adapted physical education activities with children with special needs. At the end of the day we record the progress the child made that week towards their goals. Through this project we essentially are describing what we do, why it's important, and how it's impacting these kids.

Humboldt County currently has an interpretation program to assist clients with Limited English Proficiency needs who seek local mental health services. This working alliance of the mental health provider, the mental health interpreter, and the client currently has no systematic support for mental health interpreters to reduce and cope with secondary trauma. The purpose of this project is to provide a resource guide on best clinical practices regarding this working alliance, the implementation of an Interpreter Coordinator for the county, and systemic structural recommendations in order to reduce secondary trauma among mental health interpreters.

Social workers employed in county child welfare agencies experience large and complex caseloads, high rates of burnout and consistently high rates of turnover. The California Social Work Education Center (CalSWEC) Title IV-E Child Welfare Training Project provides BSW and MSW students with additional training in child welfare and a stipend of $18,500 per year in exchange for a year’s work in a county or state child welfare or Tribal agency upon graduation. Data was collected through an electronic survey, completed by county and state child welfare social workers who had participated in the Title IV-E program in order to assess their wellbeing, preparedness and longevity in the position.
