Center on Assets, Education, and Inclusion

Park is an organizational scholar with an overarching research question, "how can health and social service organizations provide more responsive and effective services?" He is deeply interested in (1) how to ensure users' meaningful representation opportunities in service and policy decision-making processes and (2) how intra/inter-organizational collaborations and macro-level measures influence organizational behaviors and shape the experience of vulnerable service users.

As a scholar using the organization as a main unit of analysis, Park's study spans multiple fields, including but not limited to substance use disorder treatment centers, community-based organizations serving historically marginalized groups, child and youth-serving organizations, homeless-serving regional networks, and HIV prevention service providers. Park engages in multiple AEDI initiatives, including examining and improving the College Boost program's operational and organizational practices.
