Early Childhood Focus Group Session 6
2020-10-26 12:00 - 13:00
This conference call focus group is for Mississippi parents and caregivers of children ages birth to 5 who have social, emotional or developmental challenges.
In the focus groups, parents will be asked to share their thoughts about getting help for their children and to compare what happens to them to what happened to families in groups that we did a few years ago. Each of the focus groups will last about one hour.

Each focus group will last 45-60 minutes and you will receive a $25 Walmart gift card for participating. You will be asked if you think what families said in 2013 about getting help for their young children is still the same or if things are different. You can read what parents said in our 2013 focus groups by clicking here.
