She is a mentor and career coach to developing health equity scholars through Johns Hopkins (RWJF). Dr. Bordere’s research is contextually based focusing on cultural trauma, stigmatized loss (homicide loss, assaultive violence-sexual assault), suffocated grief (a term she coined), and black youth and family bereavement and mourning rituals. She developed the S.H.E.D. Grief Tools Training Program for Early Childhood Professionals and programs and K-12 schools. Dr. Bordere has received numerous awards including the Ronald K.

She is a Grief Reach grantee funded by the New York Life Foundation.

She is a grief and health expert and advisor on documentary films related to bereavement in multicultural families and disenfranchised losses (child loss, homicide survivorship). Dr. Bordere has been featured in multiple media outlets including USA Today, New York Times, Legacy.com, Psychology Today, Houston Chronicle, Philadelphia Inquirer, and NPR. She is a proud New Orleans native.
