Developing, Marketing, and Evaluation of Eagle Books and Youth Eagle Books for American Indians

and Alaska Natives


Parent’s Consent/Permission Form (K- 4 Groups)



PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT

We have asked your child to take part in a group talk with up to 4 children his or her age. We will ask your child what they think about the Eagle Books. The Eagle Books is a group of children’s books about exercise, healthy eating, and how to prevent diabetes.


Taking part in the group discussion does not mean that your child is at higher risk for diabetes. We want to talk to your child because the Eagle Books are especially for American Indian children, about your child’s age. We want to find out what children think about the Eagle Books and what they have learned.


The Native Diabetes Wellness Program (NDWP) at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is in charge of this project. Part of CDC’s job is to help people stay healthy and safe. Westat is a company that has been hired to help CDC with this project.



PROCEDURES

  • A trained leader will lead the talk and will ask what your child thinks about the Eagle Books and what they have learned.


  • The talk will last about an hour.


  • We will not ask your child to talk about their health or your family’s health. We will ask what they think about the Eagle Books and how the books can help kids stay healthy.


  • Your child does not have to answer any questions they do not want to.


  • We will answer all of your child’s questions before the talk starts.


  • Someone from CDC or Westat will take notes during our talk. We will not write your child’s name in the notes. Later, other people working on this project may read the notes because they could not be here in person. Only people who work on this project will be allowed to see the notes.



RISKS AND BENEFITS


Your child should not be hurt in any kind of way because they took part in this talk. There are no direct benefits to you or your child for taking part in this talk. What your child tells us will help us understand what kids have learned from the Eagle Books.
