Her work examines how relationships to water, land, and institutions influence health, belonging, and equity, particularly for Black, Indigenous, and other racially marginalized and minoritized communities. Drawing on arts-based and narrative methods such as photovoice, she explores how lived experience and counter-storytelling can transform how social work understands and practices justice.&nbsp;Dr. Mitchell serves as the Watts Endowed Coordinator of Indigenous Scholarship and &amp; Special Advisor to the Dean.
