Tara Bartlett Email & Phone Number

I am a Clinical Assistant Professor at Arizona State University's Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College. My teaching and research focus on public policy and democratic innovations, particularly among youth and within school communities. In my work, I draw upon frameworks of citizenship education, school democracy, and participatory governance and utilize methods such as community-based research (CBR) and participatory action research (PAR). My focus on these areas is driven by my experience and passion for integrating opportunities for youth and families to participate in school community decision-making processes, policy creation and adoption, and community empowerment initiatives.
