Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This proposal seeks to enhance acceptability and uptake of COVID-19 testing and vaccination to engage African American and Latinx public housing residents in South Los Angeles. Given the multiple disparities experienced by public housing residents, the investigators will utilize a theoretically-based, multidisciplinary and culturally tailored intervention to reduce barriers and implement innovate strategies to engage this population in the uptake of COVID-19 testing and vaccination.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Through the engagement and empowerment of 15 trained COVID-19 health ambassadors, the investigators will jointly implement and evaluate a theoretically based and culturally-sensitive socio-behavioral intervention that will: a) reduce mistrust, fatalistic beliefs, and related psychosocial barriers that hinder COVID-19 testing and vaccination; b) increase receptivity and willingness for uptake of COVID-19 testing and vaccination; and c) assess perceived impact of psychosocial and health outcomes related to COVID-19 testing and vaccination for 310 African American and Latinx public housing residents.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Increasing Uptake of COVID-19 Testing and Vaccination

This is a pre-experimental "one group pretest-posttest" design to improve COVID-19 associated health outcomes and willingness and uptake toward testing and vaccination among 310 Hispanic and African American public housing residents in South Los Angeles. The proposed intervention will employ (1) culturally sensitive, (2) theoretically based intervention that will be jointly delivered by our COVID-19 health ambassadors and our researchers. We will use the Information, Motivation, and Behavioral Skills (IMB) model and the Transtheoretical Model to implement the intervention.
