Summary
Hello:
I invite you to participate in a study on your life experiences in and out of prison. If you choose to participate, you will be scheduled for an interview lasting up to two hours. The interviews will be conducted in a secure location which is separate from the general population. Your privacy and the confidentiality of your answers and comments will be honoured. When I report results, I may describe specific discussions or include direct quotes, but I will not use your real name or any other identifying information. Please let prison staff know of your interest to participate.
Sincerely,
Regina Benedict
Doctoral candidate
