Seeking 18-19 year old Hawaiian Youth for UH Manoa Study
What is the Study About?
Over the next few months, we will be talking with Native Hawaiian youth about teen pregnancy in their communities. We are also interested in hearing about how things go after the children are born. Through telling your story, you can help us learn how to improve support for Hawaiian youth. The findings from this study are likely to affect services for teens who may not quite be ready for a baby and want some help. Study findings are also likely to help improve services for Hawaiian youth who are parents and need a helping hand. You'll get a $25 gift card to CVS/Longs as a "thank you" gift.
Who is Eligible?
Native Hawaiian Men and Women who are
1. aged 18 or 19 years old
2. live on Oahu
Remember: we are hoping to talk with young adults with a range of experiences. That means: young women who have experienced teen pregnancy themselves and young men whose partner had a baby as a teen, as well as young women who have not had a teen pregnancy, and young men who have not gotten their partners pregnant.
Not quite sure you're eligible? Interested in referring someone but have questions? Feel free to call us.
