Description
This paper investigates how stress in parents is affected by their child's Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The purpose of this paper is to identify common stressors for parents of children with ADHD, as well as to determine what parents need from healthcare providers to mediate this stress. A survey was developed to identify sources of stress, consequences of parental stress, parental coping methods, resources provided by their healthcare provider that have been helpful, along with what they feel that they need from their healthcare providers in order to better support themselves and their family. Participants were composed of members of Facebook support groups for parents of children with ADHD. Major findings of this study include: parents experience the most stress when dealing with their child's oppositional and aggressive behaviors; parents frequently experience disruption in their marital relationship; and parents perceive that they receive little health care resources that are helpful for themselves, their child, and their family overall.

Description
The elements that connect humanity to the corresponding environments that we inhabit are diverse and complex. These connections are central to understanding human interaction, our environment, and ourselves. The purpose of this thesis is to establish how connection (or lack thereof) to a region, in this instance New England, is found through environment and family. This compilation of four short stories demonstrates environmental connections via technology and familial interactions.

Description
Sexual education in public schools varies drastically across the United States in the curriculum, teaching style and mandatory status. Recently a change in curriculum has occurred in some states to include education on healthy relationships and consent both within and beyond sexual health education. Educating students of different ages on healthy relationships and consent has numerous benefits including developing empathy and respect for others in addition to decreasing domestic violence and sexual assault cases, however only a handful of states have elected to incorporate this education into schools. This study will compare and analyze different sexual health curriculums across the United States to demonstrate the need and benefit of educating students of all age levels about healthy relationships and consent. The goal of this study is to create a proposal that will allow the incorporation of healthy relationship and consent education into Arizona public schools.
