Nora Wikoff (2013 Fellow) is a lecturer in criminology at the University of Manchester's School of Law, where she studies the relationship between work and crime among persons who had previously been incarcerated for serious and violent offenses. Her research focuses on how interventions can improve individuals' financial wellbeing and promote beneficial outcomes. Nora says, "Had it not been for the support of the NIJ GRF program, I would not be in the position that I am today. It gave me access to resources needed to strengthen my research and methodological skills, and the financial support enabled me to carry out a more ambitious project than would have been possible on my own. The lessons I learned continue to inform my research and teaching."
