The Virtual Promotoras Study: eHealth Intervention to Promote Sexual Health Among Young Latina Women in the US South

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Young Latina women face significant barriers to sexual health and healthcare access, particularly in emerging Latino states like Alabama. The goals of the proposed study are to develop and examine the feasibility of an innovative, scalable mHealth, "safe space" intervention for Young Latina Women (YLW) in Alabama (AL) and to stimulate the conduct of behavioral research at the University of Alabama. This work is consistent with the National Institute of Nursing Research's goals of "Enhancing wellness by understanding the physical, behavioral, cultural and environmental influences on health status and developing culturally tailored interventions to prevent illness and promote health" and "Using innovative technologies to develop novel interventions that deliver personalized care and real-time health information to patients, families and healthcare providers".
