Addie Weaver, PhD, is an associate professor of social work and director of doctoral programs in the School of Social Work at the University of Michigan. Her research aims to increase access to mental health services for underserved, economically disadvantaged individuals and families living in rural communities.

Dr. Weaver is also interested in using epidemiologic data to better understand the prevalence and etiology of mental illness in rural communities, with attention to the heterogeneity of rural populations and the potential importance of understudied subgroup differences. The ultimate goal of her research is to improve the quality of life for rural residents with mental health needs.
