Dr. Hill also advised the White House Task Force to Address Online Harassment and Abuse, served as the Director of Prevention & Masculine Engagement at Northwestern University for six years, and is the current President-Elect for the American Psychological Association’s Society for the Psychological Study of Men and Masculinities.
