Reported barriers included lack of knowledge (91.3%), distrust of the process (63%), and fear about donating (20%). Participants wanted information on CB collection during prenatal classes such as the types of banking, accessible website resources, and family or friend support as facilitators. Awareness was higher among those with greater education, income, or a family history of cancer (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.05).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Spanish\u2010only speaking women had less knowledge than the English\u2010speaking women at the same clinic (92% vs. 66%).
