Dear Service Providers,

Please see the email below regarding recruitment for focus groups around young Asian women's perspectives about pregnancy and planning for pregnancy.  There is a $50 gift card incentive for participants.  There is more information in the email and on the attached flyer.

Immigrant integration is a dynamic, two-way process in which newcomers and the receiving society work together to build secure, vibrant, and cohesive communities. As an intentional effort, integration engages and transforms all community members, reaping shared benefits and creating a new whole that is greater than the sum of its parts (Grantmakers Concerned with Immigrants and Refugees).

I am a researcher with OMNI Institute, a social science research non-profit in Denver, and we have contracted with the Tri-County Health Department in Aurora to learn about Asian young women’s experiences related to pregnancy and their perspectives about planning for pregnancy.  Our ultimate goal is to determine how we can better support Asian young women.

We will conduct two focus groups on May 8th and 15th with Asian women between the ages of 15-22 in Aurora.  Participants will receive a $50 gift card for their time.  We are currently working to identify individuals, organizations, and community centers that would be able to help us get the word out about the focus groups and possibly help us to recruit women from the largest Asian sub-populations in Aurora.


•         Would you be willing to talk with us about focus group recruitment or make some recommendations for individuals or organizations that we should talk to about the focus groups?



•         Do you know of any young women that would be interested in participating in the focus groups?



•         Would you be willing to provide feedback on our focus group questions and process or suggest an individual who may be willing to provide feedback?

Thank you for your time and please do not hesitate to email or call me with any questions or feedback.  I have attached a flyer that advertises the upcoming focus groups.

Take care-

Emily Love
