Contractor fraud has become a major challenge to New Orleans’ recovery from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
LouisianaRebuilds.Info and the LSU Sociology Department in Baton Rouge have created a survey that will help us understand how widespread contractor fraud is and more importantly, what we can do to stop it.
Whether or not you've been a victim of contractor fraud, please take this important survey. Getting information from all residents will give us better insight on how to fight this issue. The survey takes an average of 5 minutes to complete and is fully confidential. Your answers are completely confidential, and you are free to skip any question or to end the survey at any point. Louisiana Rebuilds/LSU will report results only in aggregate, percentaged form and will not release data with personally identifying information. The results will be used only for community recovery planning and scholarly research.
If you have questions about this survey, contact the LSU Sociology Department at 126 Stubbs Hall, Baton Rouge, LA 70803, 225-578-1645. If you have questions about respondents’ rights, contact Dr. Robert C. Mathews, Chairman of the Institutional Review Board at LSU, at 203 B-1 David Boyd Hall, tel. 225-578-8692.
Please feel free to forward the survey to others. Access the survey here.
