SafePlace focus groups – Austin

SafePlace needs your help

recruiting adults with disabilities

to participate in focus groups

SafePlace, the Travis County Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault
Survival Center, is seeking your help to recruit adults with
disabilities to participate in small focus groups. These confidential
meetings will focus on relationships — both positive and negative —
with spouses, partners, girlfriends, or boyfriends.

SafePlace will use information from these discussions to develop
materials for disability service providers and domestic violence and
rape crisis center staff. These materials will provide information
about components of healthy relationships and abusive relationships
when at least one person in the relationship has a disability. All
information gathered will be used anonymously, with no identifying
details.

Most of the focus groups will be held at SafePlace, located off
Riverside Drive in East Austin, and will take place in January and
February 2008. Flexible times and days will be available, including
weekdays, weeknights, and weekends. SafePlace can assist with
transportation costs if needed. Each person with a disability who
participates in an in-person focus group will receive $25.

Please distribute the attached flyer to any adults with disabilities
you think might be interested in participating, and request that they
contact us by December 21, 2007. Space is limited, so please encourage
interested people with disabilities to contact us as soon as possible.
Spanish and American Sign Language interpreters available upon
request.
