Using Boot Camp Translation to Address Rural Disparities in Adolescent Vaccination

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Primary Prevention
• Interventions: Behavioral: Boot Camp Translation; Other: Control

• Registration Number: NCT03955757
• Lead Sponsor: University of Colorado, Denver

Brief Summary

The overall goal of this project is to implement the Boot Camp Translation process to develop a replicable approach for increasing adolescent vaccine uptake that can be adaptable and feasible to use in rural settings more broadly.

Detailed Description

Boot Camp Translation (BCT) is a process to identify strategies that help communities improve health. It is a 6-month, facilitated, iterative community engagement process that brings together relevant stakeholders to develop and implement locally meaningful messages, materials, and strategies for health topics of interest.

This is a novel community engagement process that has a proven ability to result in meaningful and impactful strategies to improve compliance with recommended health behaviors in rural communities. The investigators will expand this work by testing BCT on its ability to improve vaccination with all recommend adolescent vaccines (Tdap, MenACWY, HPV, Flu).

The investigators will conduct a randomized, controlled trial in which 4 rural communities in Western Colorado will undergo BCT to develop and implement strategies to increase adolescent vaccination. Vaccination rates will be compared to 4 control communities that do not undergo BCT.
