City of Concord Focus Groups Registration

Welcome to the registration page for the City of Concord's Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice (DEIJB) focus group interviews. The City has contracted with a neutral third-party, the Racial Equity Group, who will facilitate small group interviews to develop a deeper understanding of community members' experiences regarding equal access to City services and programs, equal treatment, equal economic and volunteer opportunities, and feelings of belonging and inclusion throughout our City. You can learn more about the City's DEIJB Committee here.

How focus group interviews work?
  •     Participation is completely voluntary and will take place virtually via Zoom for up to 60 minutes.
  •     Participants will be interviewed in small groups of 5 to 12 people.
  •     Participants can sign up for shared identity focus groups, or participate in an open mixed group.
  •     Participants will be asked a series of questions about their lived experiences in Concord.
  •     Participants can choose to respond to all questions, or only questions they feel comfortable answering.
  •     Participants who require special accommodations may request as needed.
  •     Participants must be at least 18 years of age, live, work, attend school, or conduct business in Concord.
A final report of all feedback will inform the DEIJB Committee’s Strategic Action Plan. All participant responses will de-identified and not link to any individual who participates, to ensure confidentiality and protect anonymity.
