do stratis wallets have private keys?  i've backed up my .dat file, but wondering if i can also find my private key for safekeeping.  cant seem to find it in the QT software

Yes you can use the command "dumpprivkey
"  in the debug console, but a backup of your wallet.dat file is the best way to go.
If you really want to do it for all your addresses u should enable coin control in options and see which addresses have a Stratis balance on them and save all of those private keys, but I advise against this.
Everytime you send coins the change will be send to a new address of which you'd have to back up the private key as well.

Long story short: encrypt your wallet.dat file and back it up on multiple storage devices.
