Thank you for your interest in participating in this survey. The survey will ask for your thoughts about different social norms, types of violence and the communities that are affected by violence. Some of the content touches on difficult topics such as domestic violence, sexual assault, and child abuse. Survey responses will help the Family Justice Center and partnering agencies better understand these issues in our community and how to provide support to survivors and prevent violence from occurring. The survey will likely take about 5-10 minutes to complete. You can stop at any time and skip any questions you do not want to answer.
Your answers are anonymous and participation is completely voluntary.
Because this survey asks questions about difficult topics, it is possible that it may be hard for some people to respond or it may cause you uncomfortable thoughts or feelings.

Please note that all survey participants can be entered into a drawing to win a $100 Visa gift card. We will select one person to receive this gift card by June 1. You do not have to enter the drawing to complete the survey. If you choose to enter the drawing, please enter your name and contact information after completing the survey.
