SCRIPT
Hello,
My name is [name] from Fieldwork Boston and I’m calling on behalf of CommunicateHealth and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), a federal public health agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. CommunicateHealth is getting feedback to help develop materials to educate kids about the dangers of playing in abandoned buildings. If you qualify, we will offer you $45 as a token of appreciation to participate in a 90-minute focus group discussion session in Holyoke, MA.
This is a feedback session. We are not selling anything. Other people who have participated in similar focus groups have found it to be interesting and fun. Does it sound like something you would be interested in?
[IF YES]
Great. Let's find out if you qualify. I have a few simple questions to ask. This should take about 5 minutes. At some point, I may end the questions if I discover you don't qualify. This has nothing to do with you. We simply are looking for people who meet certain criteria.
