How Do I Participate in the Blood Substudy?
Text Alternative for Infographic
1) Sign up
Sign up for and consent to join using the VOICES of Black Women portal.
2) Schedule your blood draw
Receive a kit in the mail, which will include all materials needed. It will also include instructions for how to make an appointment with an ACS lab partner at a location that is convenient for you.
3) Get your blood drawn
You will need your collection kit at the time of your appointment. A medical professional will draw 30ml (about 2 tablespoons) of blood. This is similar to the amount drawn during a routine doctor’s visit. The medical professional will also collect your physical measurements (your height, weight, waist, and blood pressure).
4) Take a brief survey
Within 24 hours after your blood draw, take a brief survey on the portal. This survey will ask about things like what medications you’re taking and when you had your last meal before giving blood.
5) Redeem your $40 e-gift card
Once we receive your blood sample and process your survey, we’ll send instructions on how to redeem your $40 e-gift card as a thank you for your participation.
