New Project - Interviewing Personal Stories

Subject: “Talking with Family About Hereditary Cancer Risk”
I am working with the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention and the National Association for Chronic Disease Directors (NACDD)

Looking to interview young women who were the first people in their family to learn they have a genetic risk for breast or ovarian cancer and who took on the responsibility of sharing that information with other family members. Also, looking for young women that are survivors who were diagnosed and went through treatment.

We have a great opportunity to share your story nationally to help other people with these conversations. These interviews are about genetic risk and about your experiences sharing this hereditary risk information with other family members.

The age range presently is 18-45. The age of diagnosis should be 40 or under; a little younger or older okay. African American, Hispanic, Asian, or other woman of color, and Caucasian. Also, Ashkenazi Jewish descent.

Preferably women local to NYC, Long Island, Upstate NY, PA, NJ, CT or reasonably further.
Initial phone call or Facetime to meet.
There is no compensation.
Transportation reimbursement for all to New York City.

NACDD Interviewer will be off camera
On-camera Interview
Final Edited Interviews: 1-2 minutes (To be shown on website)

Location: Manhattan (Address TBD)
Shoot Date: April/May (TBD)
Set Time: 2-3 hours (including hair/make-up)

Please call or email if you are interested in learning more details such as types of questions that will be asked.  Sharing your story will make a difference in helping others. This is a timely project, and we look forward to hearing your story.
Thank you very much.
Carolyn
