The UAA Justice Center worked in partnership with the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Department of Public Safety (DPS) through the Federal Bureau of Justice Assistance funded Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Sexual Assault Kit Initiative (AK-SAKI) to conduct research on DPS's policies and procedures related to sexual assault investigations, prosecutions, and victim-survivor engagement and support.
UAA Justice Center Assistant Professor Ingrid Johnson recently published an article in the Journal of Interpersonal Violence, titled "Victim-Survivors’ Prioritization of Reasons for Non-Reporting Adult Sexual Assaults to Law Enforcement." This manuscript used data from a survey of survivors of adult sexual assault in Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ on their reasons for not reporting to the police, which was part of the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Sexual Assault Kit Initiative (AK-SAKI).
Two members of the College of Health community were honored as emeritus faculty at an award ceremony on April 27.
Justice Center assistant professor Ingrid Johnson shared results from the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Victimization Survey (AVS) with the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ House Judiciary Committee.
The Domestic Violence in Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ report has been published by the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Criminal Justice Commission.
