: Our study protocol was submitted to the Sterling Institutional Review Board (number: 10792) and determined to be exempt on March 6, 2023 due to its low risk for negative impacts to participants, based on the terms of the US Department of Health and Human Service’s (DHHS) Policy for Protection of Human Research Subjects at 45 C.F.R. §46.104(d)—following a Category 2 exemption.
: Prior to conducting the interviews (prior to April 20, 2023) each interviewee received a written participant information sheet to review, which described the purpose, objectives, participant roles, and methods of the study, and a written informed consent form that participants signed to acknowledge their understanding of the objectives and expectations of the interview, plans for treatment of the data and reporting of results. Participants were asked if they would like to review a written transcript after the interview and whether they would like to remain anonymous.
