Hello All,

This is Lucas Hudson, editor of the Vital Voice newspaper.

The University of Missouri was awarded a grant to assess factors related to tobacco use by LGBT Missourians. Some of the things they are investigating/assessing are: initiation of smoking, daily smoking, exposure to secondhard smoke, quit attempts, and long-term cessation
rates.

I am helping them recruit ex-smokers to participate in a focus group held next week. Participants will be paid twenty dollars and fed (Novak's food) as well. There are two age groups: 25-34, and 35 plus.

The times for the focus groups are: (24-35 year olds) Monday, May 12 7:30pm to 9pm at the Vital Voice's office, and (35 and up crowd) Tuesday, 5:30pm to 7pm at the Vital Voice's office. The Vital Voice is located in the Grove, at 4337 Manchester.

You are urged to call 573-529-9704 to register, but you can just show up as well. If you have any questions, please send me an e-mail at lucashudson@thevitalvoice.com.

Thanks,


Lucas
