(Lynn) McDonald is Director and Principal Investigator of Families and Schools Together (FAST). She is also a senior scientist at the Wisconsin Center for Education Research, School of Education, University of Wisconsin–Madison. She is also a consultant for the United Nations.[1] BiographyMcDonald was the daughter of a United States diplomat and spent her childhood in Europe, the Middle East and Washington, D.C.[2] In the 1960s, McDonald studied philosophy at Oberlin College.[3] She went on to get her master's degree from the University of Maryland-Baltimore and received her PhD in Psychology from the University of California-Irvine in 1976.[3] She has also become licensed as a Clinical therapist and a family therapist.[3] McDonald started her career as a social worker in the University of California, Los Angeles's Neuropsychiatric Institute.[3] McDonald was co-principal Researcher of a $2.9 million National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA) five-year grant to study the application of FAST within ethnically specific groups. McDonald was previously the principal researcher of a five-year $1.4 million grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Center for Substance Abuse Prevention. Grants from the DeWitt Wallace Reader's Digest Foundation and the Kraft Corporation have helped to disseminate FAST nationally. She was a tenure track faculty member in Social Work at University of Wisconsin–Madison from 1975 to 1987. She also holds a clinical faculty appointment in the University of Wisconsin–Madison Department of Psychiatry. In 2008 McDonald became a professor of social work research at Middlesex University.[3] Families and Schools Together (FAST)McDonald created Families and Schools Together (FAST) in 1988.[4] The program was set up to help to build multiple layers of protective factors around at-risk children - including intensive parental involvement - and also promotes students' resilience in adversity and reduction of long-term negative outcomes. Its research-based activities bring families into the school for weekly meetings.[5] McDonald has remained the chairperson of FAST.[6] FAST appears to have dramatically increased parental involvement in children's educational success in 25 states, and across diverse ethnic and socio-economic groups, although predominantly in low-income families.[7] FAST is adaptable, able to "meet the needs of specific target populations."[8] FAST was endorsed as a program by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention and also the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention because it is an "evidence based program for strengthening families."[9] FAST has also started being used in Australia in order to help Indigenous youth in schools.[10] FAST has also been successfully used in Canada.[11] Publications
