Proposed Project Formative Research to Support the Development of Sickle Cell Disease CDC seeks to improve the quality of life of people living with sickle cell disease (SCD). To accomplish this goal, CDC aims to address the need for educational messages and materials for adolescents, young adults, adults, and older adults living with SCD. CDC is interested in understanding the informational needs of these audiences related to the adoption of healthy behaviors and the prevention of complications associated with sickle cell disease. To develop valuable messages and materials, CDC will conduct formative focus groups with people with SCD across the country. Participants will stem from four urban centers as well as more remote, rural areas. Based on the findings from the formative focus groups, CDC will develop and test draft messages. A total of 10 focus groups will be conducted. Eight focus groups with people with SCD would be held in four cities: Atlanta, GA; Detroit, MI; Oakland, CA; and Philadelphia, PA. Two in-person focus groups—one with males and one with females—will be conducted in each city with each target audience: adolescents aged 15–17, young adults aged 18–25, adults aged 26–35, and older adults 36 and over. To reach more rural participants, two telephone focus groups will be conducted: one with female adolescents aged 15–17 and a second with male older adults aged 36 and older. The focus groups will be conducted with eight to nine participants in each and will last 2 hours. As part of the focus group, participants will complete an informed consent or adolescent assent form before discussion begins. The parents of the expected 27 adolescent participants (three groups of 9 each) will fill out a permission form to provide their consent in advance of the groups. The use of trained moderators and a structured moderator’s guide will ensure that consistent data are collected across the groups. In total, up to 90 people with SCD will participate in the focus group data collection. It is estimated that 120 potential participants will need to be screened to reach the target of 90 participants. The estimated time per response for screening and recruitment is 12 minutes. CDC requests OMB approval to obtain clearance for one year. There is no cost to respondents other than their time. The estimated annualized burden hours for this data collection activity are 204.

Background and Brief Description

    CDC seeks to improve the quality of life of people living with 
sickle cell disease (SCD). To accomplish this goal, CDC aims to address 
the need for educational messages and materials for adolescents, young 
adults, adults, and older adults living with SCD. CDC is interested in 
understanding the informational needs of these audiences related to the 
adoption of healthy behaviors and the prevention of complications 
associated with sickle cell disease. To develop valuable messages and 
materials, CDC will conduct formative focus groups with people with SCD 
across the country. Participants will stem from four urban centers as 
well as more remote, rural areas. Based on the findings from the 
formative focus groups, CDC will develop and test draft messages.
    A total of 10 focus groups will be conducted. Eight focus groups 
with people with SCD would be held in four cities: Atlanta, GA; 
Detroit, MI; Oakland, CA; and Philadelphia, PA. Two in-person focus 
groups--one with males and one with females--will be conducted in each 
city with each target audience: adolescents aged 15-17, young adults 
aged 18-25, adults aged 26-35, and older adults 36 and over. To reach 
more rural participants, two telephone focus groups will be conducted: 
one with female adolescents aged 15-17 and a second with male older 
adults aged 36 and older.
    The focus groups will be conducted with eight to nine participants
