Hey Alisen, that's so great to hear! I am not a forensic psychiatrist, but I'm close with people in the forensic industry. One thing that they've found success with is contacting your local sheriff's department, or even nearby sheriff's department, and ask if they know someone you can talk to. That way you can get a little bit more local (and most of the time, more personable) contacts. You can also inquire about volunteer opportunities. You can also try and find contact info for the medical examiner's office and contact them more directly.

Jason recommends the following next steps:
