University of Saskatchewan Research Study Seeking Participants
February 4, 2026From the University of Saskatchewan’s Department of Psychiatry
The University of Saskatchewan’s Department of Psychiatry is recruiting volunteers for a research study to examine barriers (or facilitators) within the criminal justice system for neurodivergent individuals. The study seeks to understand better how access to justice is impacted for people with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), or other learning, developmental, or intellectual disabilities.
Eligible participants include Saskatchewan residents (18+) with a formal diagnosis of FASD or a neurocognitive challenge who have been in contact with the criminal justice system as an accused, victim, or witness. The study is also open to caregivers, legal professionals, and law enforcement officers who have direct experience working with individuals with FASD or related neurocognitive challenges.
Qualified volunteers are invited to complete a confidential online survey estimated to take 10–20 minutes.
