Respond by 6/9: Paid Volunteer Opportunity

CheckUp Project
Missouri's First LGBT Health Survey

The CheckUp Project is looking for a few good people.

Are you outgoing? Do you love your community and want to be an active supporter? Are you willing to spare some of your Pridefest time to help the community and earn some cash? Then keep reading...

The CheckUp Project is the first state-sponsored effort to take a serious look at the attitudes, behaviors, and beliefs of the LGBTQ community regarding tobacco use. We believe that this project could help identify health disparities prevalent to our community that are currently being ignored by leading health agencies. Participation in this study will help facilitate what we believe is ground breaking research in this area with the potential to generate more funding to address health disparities in the LGBT Community. We deserve the same level of state support as any other population.

• Sign up
  Submit your name, email address, phone number to Sue McDaniel at mcdanielsu@health.missouri.edu or call her at: 573-230-8582. Please contact by June 9th. Each applicant will have to pass an online quiz prior to training, which will be emailed to you. Please keep in mind we are looking for enthusiastic outgoing folks who are comfortable walking up to strangers and asking them to complete a paper survey.
