We want to hear from you!

Join us to provide your feedback on the COVID-19 vaccine and reasons you might be comfortable or hesitant to receive the vaccine. Individual key informant interviews will be held via Zoom. Please note, you will need a private location with reliable internet access to participate.

We are seeking English-speaking adults, ages 18 and older, in your county to speak with us about your experiences related to the vaccine and related mandates during the pandemic.
