More children are missing school than ever before in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, and Rogers and her colleagues from the\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.csap-pcfs.ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Canadian School Attendance Partnership<\/a><\/em>\u00a0are studying the links between chronic absenteeism and its associations with family mental health, youth learning and emotional development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With support from the\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/cihr-irsc.gc.ca\/e\/193.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Canadian Institutes of Health Research<\/a><\/em>, Rogers and her team recently followed a Canada-wide sample of children and families affected by ADHD over four time points. This research points to the marked impact of the pandemic on this population over the coming years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A clinical psychologist, Rogers practices at the\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cafco-ceafo.ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Child, Adolescent, Family Centre of Ottawa<\/a><\/em>. Outside of this work, she specializes in supporting Indigenous children and youth in their school and learning endeavours. She works with families and educators, both on reserve and in the Ottawa-Gatineau area, bringing a culturally sensitive approach to her sessions with young clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":39795,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"cu_people_first_name":"Maria A.","cu_people_last_name":"Rogers","cu_people_initials":"MR","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_people_type":[562],"cu_people_expertise":[781],"class_list":["post-39790","cu_people","type-cu_people","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cu_people_type-canada-research-chair","cu_people_expertise-psychology"],"acf":{"cu_people_job_title":"Canada Research Chair in Child and Youth Mental Health and Well-Being","cu_people_degree":"","cu_building":"","cu_people_office_num":"","cu_people_pronoun":"","cu_people_designation":"Dr.","cu_people_email":"","cu_people_phone":"","cu_people_phone_ext":"","cu_people_linkedin":"","cu_people_bluesky":"","cu_people_twitter":"","cu_people_instagram":"","cu_people_facebook":"","cu_people_website":"","cu_people_orcid":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people\/39790","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_people"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people\/39790\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":52226,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people\/39790\/revisions\/52226"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39795"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39790"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_people_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people_type?post=39790"},{"taxonomy":"cu_people_expertise","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people_expertise?post=39790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
