UAA Justice Center data on domestic violence and sexual assault in Alaska was referenced in a September 17 online article by Lizzie Jepsen in UAF's student-run weekly newspaper The Sun Star: "Violence prevention program makes its way to UAF."

The data is from the Alaska Victimization Survey of adult women, an ongoing project begun in 2010 that is designed to measure the lifetime and past year exposure to sexual violence and intimate partner violence.
