Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Intervention Arm - CHW-led curriculum (Group 2)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants assigned to the intervention group will complete the same activities as Group 1 and be asked to participate in the virtual intervention, consisting of six-weekly group classes via Zoom, and six-weekly personalized teleconsultations (via phone call or Zoom) at a suitable time for both participants and CHWs. Study participants will receive 6 linguistically and ethnically concordant weekly two-hour group classes and personalized teleconsultations led by CHWs. The total time commitment for Group 2 will be a maximum of 20 hours (6 two-hour group classes, + 6 one hour personal session, + 2 half hour phone calls), over the next 6 weeks.
Group II: Control Arm - Standard Treatment (Group 1)Active Control1 Intervention
The standard care for the control arm will be: the LACDHS Vaccine Hesitancy Outreach Group calling patients once every month to remind patients of the need to be vaccinated and tested if needed. During the duration of the six weeks, the study participants will be exposed to the call from the LACDHS Vaccine Hesitancy Outreach Group. Participants will receive two phone calls six-weeks apart, where they will complete a pre-survey in the first phone call, and 2 surveys (post-survey and CDE survey) in the second phone call. The survey will measure their trust in medical institutions, rate their self-efficacy, and intention, knowledge, and perceptions on COVID-19 testing and vaccination.
