What the study is about

Project CONTINUITY (Connecting You to Care in the Community) was developed to increase adherence to cervical cancer screening regimens from initial screening to needed follow-up care by (1) providing personalized approaches to improve adherence through the combined use of patient choice for the initial screening method (Pap/HPV co-testing vs. HPV self-test collection), community clinical navigators and community health workers (CHWs), customized messages and support for patient portal access for test results and (2) implementing strategies to address social determinants of health (SDoH) that may influence an individual's ability to adhere to the screening regimen, with an initial focus on removing transportation barriers through the use of a mobile outreach clinics (MOC).

Being studied: Participant Choice of HPV Self-Test; Survey: Participant cancer history and cervical cancer prevention/screening knowledge; Participant Choice of Standard of Care in-clinic Pap-test

Conditions: Cervical Cancer Screening Methods
