VOICES of Black Women Blood Substudy Infographic 2 How to participate

American Cancer Society 

VOICES of Black Women Blood Substudy

  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 wil 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.
