Dr. Kimberly Dickman:
Dr. Kimberly Dickman has worked in the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response program for the Air Force for 9 years at the base level, at the Pentagon and now at the Air Force Academy. Her background in education, mental health counseling and human sexuality guides her role in both prevention of and response to sexual violence.
Kimberly defiantly refuses to believe that sexual violence is inevitable and with our collective powers, she knows that it is preventable. To not believe this, to be dulled by the statistics, to be defeated by apathy would mean sacrificing our sons and daughters, our sisters and brothers which she is not willing to do. Dr. Dickman’s engaging presentations absorbs audiences and has transformed thinking.
Kimberly is a returning keynote to our Campus Safety Summit series who has constantly earned raved reviews for her entertaining, enthusiastic and important messages about sexual assault.

Dr. Jennifer Hirsch & Dr. Shamus Khan are the authors of Sexual Citizens: A Landmark Study of Sex, Power, and Assault on Campus.

Detective Justin Boardman (Retired) served in law enforcement for 15 years with the West Valley City, Utah, Police Department. His first eight years were spent as a patrol officer. During his seven years in the Special Victims Unit, Justin was introduced to the Salt Lake County Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) where he was exposed to a multi-disciplinary team that needed involvement from law enforcement. Justin worked tirelessly to improve the investigative process for victims, ultimately identifying weaknesses and gaps in the process. It is through these efforts that SART is now uniquely positioned to influence statute and policy change on a statewide level, which includes passing mandatory processing laws that have helped eliminate Sexual Assault Kit backlogs and increased prosecution of perpetrators. In his capacity as officer and detective, Detective Boardman was honored with numerous awards including the Police Star, multiple Life Saving, Distinguished Service, Meritorious Service Awards, and Investigator of the Year for his work in West Valley City’s SVU. He also received the Utah Visionary Voice Award presented by the National Sexual Violence Resource Center and the 2017 Public Policy Award by the Utah Council on Victims of Crime. He has conducted nearly 300 forensic child victim interviews, and 140 adult sexual assault victim interviews. Justin spent additional time with each victim, working through their trauma to build trust, ultimately building solid cases that increased prosecution, helped provide more effective procedural justice, and prioritized setting processes in place to treat victims with the dignity and empathy they deserve. In 2013 Detective Boardman co-authored a Trauma Informed Victim Interview protocol for adult victims of sexual assault. This guideline uses the Neurobiology of Trauma to gain additional information to build the investigation. This process has been studied and has shown to increase prosecutions along with procedure changes and is now the standard for the victim interview process in Utah and neighboring states. Since retiring in 2017, Justin trains and consults globally on a variety of subjects, most notably the trauma-informed victim interview and trauma-informed investigations that he relentlessly researches and re-designs to create better processes that protect victims. His focus is to strengthen investigations that are victim-centered, suspect-focused, and trauma-informed. He advocates for culture change within the justice system and law enforcement, with a focus on “policing with compassion.” He believes that police work done with compassion and empathy improves communication; builds bridges; establishes a system of consistency and belief; supports prosecution of those who harm; and most importantly, supports survivors.
