This is a pilot study to improve rates of germline genetic testing for black patients with aggressive prostate cancer as recommended by the updated guidelines by the National Cancer Comprehensive Network (NCCN) in 2018. In this study, consented patients will undergo a low-risk intervention of an educational session with a trained staff member on germline testing in prostate cancer and, if agreeable, subsequent germline cancer genetic testing via a commercial lab test.
Care Coordination is an essential component of cancer care delivery. Many patients experience poor care coordination. In this study, we hypothesize that provision of a video educational intervention to teach patients about cancer, care coordination and self-advocacy will improve patients' perception of care coordination. Cancer patients with early stage disease scheduled to receive adjuvant therapy, and who reside in a rural area, will be enrolled onto the study. Patients will be randomized to receive a table-based educational intervention tool initially (arm1) or after 4 months of therapy (arm2). Assessment of cancer knowledge, self-advocacy and care coordination will be obtained at baseline and after 4-6 months.
This study focuses on psychosocial barriers at the patient level with the goal of promoting high quality decision making around clinical trials participation. The proposed study adapts the PRE-ACT model to racial and ethnic minority patients who were underrepresented in the original PRE-ACT study and will be combined with a patient navigator model.
The goal of this study is to pilot test a new educational intervention for organization members focused on suicide prevention for autistic people. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does participating in the intervention increase participants' knowledge, skills, and actions to support suicide prevention for autistic people? * What feedback do participants have to help improve the intervention? Participants will: * engage in a four-part virtual educational intervention * answer questions via online survey before, after, and 3-months after the intervention * participate in an optional interview to provide feedback
