Edtech-HPV Trial Summary

This trial will test a community-based educational program to see if it increases the rate of HPV vaccination completion among children of Mexican Americans, with or without a text message reminder system. The trial will also assess the participants' concerns regarding the impact of COVID-19 on their daily life.

Participants must be Mexican or Mexican-American, own a cell phone with text messaging capabilities, and be willing to receive texts for the study. Those with serious psychiatric or cognitive impairments that affect consent or adherence are excluded.Check my eligibility

What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on education and communication methods rather than medical treatments, there are no direct side effects from interventions like drugs or vaccines. However, participants may experience stress related to COVID-19 concerns addressed in surveys.
