About Abby Donaghue
As a Tufts Laidlaw Scholar, I researched arts education access for autistic students and later supported Youth Work Ireland's 2022 Pride initiatives for my Leadership In Action project. These experiences were foundational to my Master's thesis research and have shaped the early stages of my career, as I pursue my long term goal of becoming a clinical psychologist supporting neurodivergent youth.

Research Proposal: Access to Arts Education for Autistic Students
Arts education has played a significant role in my life and has enabled me to connect with people of all different backgrounds, abilities, and neurotypes. I'm so excited to be researching arts education for autistic students as a Laidlaw Scholar, as described in the preliminary proposal below.

My Leadership in Action experience alongside fellow scholar Andra Preda at Youth Work Ireland this past summer was a formative experience in what community-centered leadership can look like.

Visiting for LIA Project
Hello Trinity College scholars! My name is Abby, I'm a Laidlaw scholar from Tufts University in the 2021 Cohort. This summer, @Andra Preda and I will be coming to Dublin for six weeks to work on our Leadership in Action Project, and we're staying on Trinity College campus. For our project, we're collaborating with Youth Work Ireland to create an arts-focused event for youth around Dublin Pride. Neither of us have ever been to Dublin (or elsewhere in Ireland), and we would love any advice you have on living in the area. Please feel free to comment or direct message us if you'll be near campus this summer and you'd like to connect and/or show us around!
