Experimental Treatment
Group I: Increasing Uptake of COVID-19 VaccinationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This is a pre-experimental "one group pretest-posttest" design to increase COVID-19 vaccine uptake and completion among African American and Latinx 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 ACTIVATE triad leaders and our researchers. We will use the Information, Motivation, and Behavioral Skills (IMB) model and the Transtheoretical Model to implement the intervention.
