Q News Tonight is proud to launch our Thursday Night Business Professional Segment we are calling "NetWerQ" with a Q, where we will highlight & network LIVE with Local LGBTQ Business Leaders, Individuals, & Organizations from around South Florida! Tonight's segment features Dr. Nick Metheny from the University of Miami School of Nursing & Health Studies.
He serves as an Assistant Professor. His research focuses on preventing domestic violence and its negative health implications in LGBTQ populations globally. Just recently, he joined as the co-principal investigator of the team that launched the PROMiSE app - PROMoting Safety in Emergencies.
The PROMiSE app is meant to capitalize on safety plans and safety planning activities while providing linkages to resources that are still up and running or available to help people in different ways than they did before COVID-19, as Gender-based violence has increased significantly amongst individuals, relationships, and our entire social fabric.
Here to tell us more, let’s please welcome Assistant Professor at the University of Miami School of Nursing & Health Studies, Nick Metheny, to NetWerQ here on Q News Tonight!
