Biography

Ingrid Diane Johnson is an Associate Professor in the Justice Center. Raised in Delta Junction and Fairbanks in Interior Alaska, Dr. Johnson received her B.A. in Justice from the University of Alaska Fairbanks (2010) and completed both an M.A. and Ph.D. in Criminal Justice at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. The focus of much of Dr. Johnson’s research is on help-seeking among survivors of sexual assault and intimate partner violence, and how formal and informal networks can improve those processes. She also has expertise in the areas of rural-urban differences, substance use and treatment access, and restorative justice. She was the principal investigator (PI) for the Alaska Sexual Assault Kit Initiative (AK-SAKI) research component in partnership with the Alaska Department of Public Safety and serves as the PI for the quinquennial Alaska Victimization Survey (AVS).
