ACJS seeks interviews for study of violence against women

ACJS 2012 New York City Annual Meeting - Interviewees Needed for Violence Against Women Research

The National Institute of Justice has devoted substantial efforts to promoting researcher-practitioner partnerships specific to Violence Against Women (VAW) research. As a result, there have been numerous partnerships specific to this topic whereby partners have acquired much knowledge, which can be used to inform future partnering efforts.

Tami Sullivan (Yale University School of Medicine) and Bonnie Fisher (University of Cincinnati) have been funded by the National Institute of Justice to document and synthesize lessons learned from VAW researcher-practitioner partnerships within the criminal justice system to promote building and enhancing future partnerships.

As a practitioner or researcher who is partnering or has partnered regarding VAW research, you have valuable information to share! We invite you to participate in a one-on-one interview to share your experiences and knowledge in an effort to document the development and sustainability of these types of partnerships within the criminal justice system. Your input is extremely valuable and we will compensate you for your time.

We anticipate that your involvement will require participation in a 60-minute personal interview that will be audio and video-taped. You will be remunerated for your time in accordance with NIJ guidelines.  We can compensate you for your preparation and interview time.

Interviews will be held onsite and individually scheduled. To be considered as an interviewee, please send an e-mail to preventsv@gmail.com by Monday, February 27st.  In this email, please provide a brief description of your partnering experiences.

THANK YOU for considering our invitation.
