Exit Survey
 
 
Hello:
You are invited to participate in our survey on how you perceive police officers and how they respond to people who have a mental health diagnoses. In this survey, approximately 50 people will be asked to complete a survey that asks questions about police officers and their response time and training when responding to a call of a person with mental illness. It will take approximately 5-7 minutes to complete the questionnaire.

Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. There are no foreseeable risks associated with this project. However, if you feel uncomfortable answering any questions, you can withdraw from the survey at any point. It is very important for us to learn your opinions.

Your survey responses will be strictly confidential and data from this research will be reported only in the aggregate. Your information will be coded and will remain confidential. If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact Audra Mellott by email at [email protected].
