Subject:Child Welfare Research Study Opportunity--PLEASE SHARE

Dear Potential Participant, My name is Whitney Howey, and I am a PhD Candidate at the University of Utah, College of Social Work. I, along with my colleague are conducting a study aimed to enhance our understanding of engagement strategies used in child welfare courts. You are being contacted because you are a child welfare stakeholder (i.e., judge, attorney, or case worker) who works or has worked in the child welfare court system. Participation includes a web-based survey which should take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete. If eligible (i.e., not a judge), you may receive a $30.00 Amazon gift card for participating in this study. You will receive this gift card regardless of if you complete the survey or if you choose to discontinue the survey. Please provide your email at the end of the survey to receive your gift card. This study has been approved by the University of Utah Institutional Review Board (IRB). A full version of the consent form is attached to this email (YOU DO NOT NEED TO SIGN IT). By clicking the survey link, you are consenting to participate in this research study: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdQdTSySi2GVoIJfwzRCYp5uEU-eMm_Zb1_igDnfFrne02YiQ/viewform?usp=sf_link Feel free to contact me with additional questions via email whitney.howey@utah.edu or by phone at 801-897-1418.
