Criminal justice and domestic violence in Alaska

UAA's Alaska Justice Statistical Analysis Center (AJSAC) received a $79,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Statistics, to support a new AJSAC research initiative called the Alaska Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Case Processing Project.

Brad Myrstol, director of the center, will examine criminal justice case processing and outcomes of sexual assault, sexual abuse of a minor and domestic violence cases in the state of Alaska. AJSAC will collaborate with the Alaska Department of Public Safety, the Alaska Department of Law, and the Alaska Department of Health and Social Services, Division of Juvenile Justice. The Alaska Dispatch has an in-depth report here.
