The Justice Center performed data entry and analysis from a public opinion survey of North Slope Borough residents regarding services provided by the North Slope Borough Department of Public Safety (NSBDPS), the chief law enforcement agency for the residents of the northernmost borough in Alaska. The North Slope Borough includes the communities Barrow (borough seat), Atqasuk, Anaktuvuk Pass, Kaktovik, Nuiqsut, Point Hope, Point Lay, and Wainwright. Its residents are predominately Inupiat Eskimo. The survey was conducted to identify methods for improving services provided by NSBDPS.

 In a related project, the Justice Center conducted a survey of NSBDPS employees.
