About Me

Dr. Keith Miller is an assistant professor at the University of Indianapolis in the Phylis Lin Lan Department of Social Work. He focuses on using evidence from social epidemiology and social capital to promote health equity through community-based interventions and policy advocacy as evidenced by his dissertation American Muslim Well-being in an era of Rising Islamophobia: Mediation Analysis of Muslim American Social Capital and Health from the Indiana University School of Social Work. Keith co-founded Pathway LLC, which aims to increase access to mental healthcare in southern Indianapolis and has also provided statistical analysis and policy development in partnership with the Indiana Council of Community Mental Centers and the Division of Mental Health and Addiction. In addition to his research and practice, Keith incorporates a pedagogy of liberation in his teaching and learning and believes in the power of small collaborative groups to create meaningful change in their communities. Keith's ultimate goal is to cultivate a sense of belonging through creativity, relationship, and science, and to work towards a world where people feel a sense of autonomy, dignity, and meaningful connection.
