We cultivate healthy, long-lasting, and vibrant Asian and Pacific Islander communities through grassroots organizing.
Do you have diabetes or pre-diabetes / borderline diabetes? Or have you had diabetes/pre-diabetes in the past? Are you an adult who lives in Los Angeles or Orange County? We are looking for Filipino Americans - immigrant and American-born - to participate in a two-hour focus group study. You could receive a $70 Target gift card for sharing your experiences. Your participation will take place entirely online via a Zoom video call in the next two weeks. Help your community from the comforts of your home!
Researchers from California State University, Northridge and Asian Pacific Islander Forward Movement are conducting a focus group study on diabetes and Filipino Americans. Focus groups are group conversations between 7 - 8 people on a particular topic. If eligible, you would be sharing your experiences on how your culture and experiences living in the U.S. influence your food habits and diabetes with other individuals from your community. Focus groups will be conducted with a bilingual moderator who speaks Filipino and English. For Filipino Americans that grew up in the U.S., focus groups will be conducted primarily in English. All your information will be kept confidential. This study is sponsored by the National Institutes of Health.
