Measure
INVEST Intervention School Districts
INVEST: The intervention will consist of 3 primary components: 1) school nurse training and technical support for promoting adolescent vaccination (Tdap, MenACWY, HPV) and strengthening existing school nursing vaccination programming, 2) caregiver-targeted educational materials that are disseminated via school nurses, and 3) tools and resources to facilitate linkage to vaccination providers in the local community. Existing materials will be used in the intervention such as resources available from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Middle School Health Starts Here tool kit from the National Association of School Nurses and the National HPV Roundtable. Technical support includes the study team working with local school nurses to identify educational materials available from national and statewide sources.
