We are looking for a diversity of participant characteristics and experiences\, including those who consider themselves “in remission” or having “low disease activity.” \nFocus Group engagement will entail participation in a virtual focus group\, 3-4 online questionnaires\, and a virtual discussion. Total time commitment estimated to be 6-8 hours. Participating Ambassadors will receive an honorarium of $400. \nIf you are a caregiver of a child with eczema who is interested in joining the Eczema Remission Research Focus Group\, complete the questionnaire by October 24\, 2025.
