Insights from Developing and Implementing a Novel School Community Collaborative Model to Promote School Safety.

Background: School Resource Officer (SRO) programs do not reduce school violence and increase school discipline. We describe the use of a culturally responsive framework to form a school community collaborative among students, parents, staff, administrators, and law enforcement to reform an SRO program, promote school safety, and reduce punitive measures.

Methods: Members of a participating school district, a local county, and a university collaborated.

Obesity in Refugees post-resettlement in a high-income country: a meta-analysis.

Background: Refugees have a high prevalence of obesity post resettlement, but few studies have compared their risk of obesity to those of the host population. We systematically investigated the association between refugee status and obesity after resettlement in a high-income nation.

Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, OpenGrey and bibliographies of retrieved articles, with no date, location, and language restrictions, for observational studies assessing obesity rates in resettled refugees compared to the host population.
