The conceptual framework for Dr. Grimmett's approach to research is titled R.A.D.I.C.A.L. scholarship, which means Research Activism to Deconstruct Institutionalized Cultures and Advocate for Liberation. This framework currently includes four areas of concentration and corresponding goals, which are: transforming contextual and systemic factors to promote the healthy development of African American males (e.g., Conducting a study on the contextual factors, diagnostic processes, and counseling outcomes associated with the diagnosis of Conduct Disorder or Oppositional Defiant Disorder in African American boys); facilitating access to mental health counseling services using a counselor education program-based community mental health clinic (e.g. developed proposal for a School-Based Mental Health Program Collaboration between the NC State University Counselor Education Program and a local High School); developing social justice counselor education teaching methods (e.g., developed Documentaries Relating Experience About Multiculturalism Project for Advanced Multicultural Counseling course); and preventing gender-based violence through education, activism, and community partnerships (e.g., executive producer, co-director, and co-writer of MY MASCULINITY HELPS, an educational documentary that explores the role of African American men and boys in the prevention of sexual violence, supported by a grant from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women, scheduled to be released in late Fall 2013).
