The Justice Programs Office (JPO) at American University (AU), on behalf of the Bureau of
Justice Assistance (BJA), is conducting its first Tribal Healing to Wellness Court Survey as part
of the Annual Treatment Court Survey Series. The information you provide in this survey will
contribute to a better understanding of Wellness Courts throughout the country.
Your Participation
You will be asked a series of questions about your Wellness Court and your role in it. Questions
address your court's structure, operation, and target and participant populations, as well as
perceived successes and challenges. The survey takes approximately 45 minutes to complete,
depending on the information available and responses you provide.
If you are part of multiple Wellness Courts, please complete the survey for only one court and
then contact JPO at 202-885-1580 or send an email to [email protected].
Risks and Benefits
Your participation is completely voluntary and poses little risk to you. Your responses will be
separated from any identifying information, like your name, name of court, or name of tribe.
Further, results will only be reported in aggregate for the entire group as a whole (e.g., 90% of
Wellness Courts received federal funding).
For your participation, you will receive the final survey report. The survey report will be used to
inform resources, best practices, and future funding for Wellness Courts. Therefore, your
participation will be directly contributing to the learning and improvement of the Wellness Court
field. Additionally, participants who complete the survey will be entered to win a raffle prize.
Contact Information
If you have questions about the survey, please contact JPO at 202-885-1580, Dr. Julie Baldwin
at [email protected], or Mr. Zephi Francis at [email protected].
You may also contact the AU Research Compliance Manager at 202-885-3447.
