Hello,

We understand that this support group is your sanctuary from everyday life, and
we want to be sensitive to that. We are not trying to harm you in any way or
disrupt your community. We are just asking for a little of your time so we can
help the counseling profession understand more about chat rooms and
message/bulletin boards.

We are graduate researchers who are trying to study the satisfaction
of individuals who use chat rooms or message/bulletin boards. We are
in need of participants and would be very greatful for your participation. We
are willing to send an electronic copy of our results upon request.

If you have visited a chat room or message/bulletin board, and would
be willing to complete a 10-15 minute survey please visit this web site:

This research has been approved by the University of Florida Institutional
Review Board. You will need to enter in the password GRADY, it is case
sensitive so it must be all CAPS.

Thank you for your time and attention,

UF researchers
