Johnson says interviewee information is confidential, and stories gathered will be used to help the Troopers improve responses to sexual assault in the future. Those who participate in the research are eligible to receive a $45 gift card.
Those interested in participating can contact Dr. Johnson by email at idjohnson@alaska.edu or by phone at 907-786-1126.
