Welcome to the Caribbean Mom Portal

 

IF YOU ARE A CARIBBEAN MOTHER OF A CHILD (AGES 4 to 14),
THEN YOU ARE INVITED TO TAKE A SURVEY

The Research Group on Disparities in Health within the Department of Health and Behavior Studies at Teachers College, Columbia University, in New York, New York is studying how Caribbean women who were not born in the United States with a child (ages 4 to 14) describe the food choices they make for themselves and their children, including decisions about physical activity and television viewing. Our goal is to use our findings to design health education for immigrant mothers raising school age children.

Participation in this survey is limited to the first 200 women Participants will spend about 20 to 30 minutes answering survey questions After 200 people complete the survey, the computer program will automatically close the survey and send out bar–coded gift certificates for use at www.Amazon.com to three randomly chosen e-mail accounts ($300, $200 or $100) without in any way linking your identity to the survey results.
