Overview of Research Study
Overview of Focus Groups
About twenty focus groups will be conducted over Zoom with diverse members of multiracial and multiethnic churches. Participants will be asked to answer questions related to their experience and perception of how race, ethnicity, and/or generational dynamics have influenced their congregation on an interpersonal and congregational level. Focus groups are expected to last about 1 to 1 ½ hours and will be video recorded so that we can accurately capture everyone’s viewpoints. A $20 gift card will be given to participants as a token of appreciation.
