About this study

Official title: Increasing Breast, Cervical, and Colorectal Cancer Screening and HPV Vaccination Among Underserved Texans: A Collaboration With the United Way's 2-1-1 Program

This study involves a partnership between UTHealth School of Public Health and the Texas 2-1-1 service, which is a helpline connecting low-income and minority callers with a number of needed services. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a prevention program in which a phone navigator intervention designed to connect 2-1-1 helpline callers to evidence-based screening and prevention services including mammography, Pap test screening, colorectal cancer screening, and HPV vaccination.

Being tested
Cancer control navigation (CNN), General referral (usual care)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Cancer control navigation (CNN)Behavioural

    Cancer Control Navigators (CNNs) housed at 2-1-1 call centers aid callers. CNNs receive electronic summary profiles of participants assigned to navigation. Navigators call the participant, build a collaborative relationship with them, identify their needs, work with them to identify barriers to services and coordinate solutions, and provide logistic (e.g., making appointments) and emotional support. Navigation services are provided by telephone only.

  • General referral (usual care)Behavioural

    Information Specialists at the 2-1-1 call center provide cancer control referrals specific to participant's screening or prevention needs.
