COVID-19 Group Problem Solving and booster call

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

COVID-19 Group Problem Solving

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants will have three core components to be delivered at the corner by trained data collectors. Interactive dialogue component that incorporates popular education activities aimed at developing social cohesion among LDLs, building awareness about COVID-19 risks and protective behaviors and developing a personal commitment called "Mi Promesa" to implement COVID mitigation practices. Navigation Component will consist of providing information and linking LDLs with social service providers and the "Multiplicador de salud"/Health Multiplier component that builds from the theoretical and practice-based method of mobilizing social networks and social support.

Standard of Care

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants will receive a COVID-19 prevention flyer and social resources list only

Booster session

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants in this group will also receive a "booster phone call" 10 to 15 days after the small group intervention to provide brief prompts to encourage participants to act on their personal commitments and encourage them to seek community resources.
