Organizational stakeholders from organizations involved in Phase 1 and 2 will take part in a focus group after their respective phases have been completed to learn more about their experience.

Health sciences students from a regional community college in Appalachian Virginia will be asked to to develop and submit a public service announcement (PSA) and to watch virtual training webinars that support the development of the PSAs. They will also be asked to complete surveys at three time points: before the PSA contest starts, after the PSA contest ends, and upon submitting a PSA.

PSA Development

Community members who use a regional health services focused non-profits rideshare buses and/or view their social media pages will be exposed to a 12-week social marketing campaign that uses PSAs developed in Phase 1. Community members will also complete surveys at three time points: before the start of the social marketing campaign, during the social marketing campaign, and after the social marketing campaign.

HPV vaccination focused social marketing campaign

Since 2019, the HPV working group of the University of Virginia Cancer Center's Southwest Virginia Community Advisory Board has developed and executed strategies to increase regional HPV vaccination rates. Members collaboratively developed Appalachian Voices for Health, a multi-level media production and social marketing intervention. This novel intervention builds on the past efforts of the working group and the engaged organizations; takes into account the impact of vaccine hesitancy on HPV vaccination uptake; and incorporates best practices. Through the intervention, Nursing and Dental Assistant students from Mountain Empire Community College will develop PSAs after receiving training about HPV vaccination and health communication. These PSAs will be used in a social marketing campaign executed through a regional transportation system managed by Mountain Empire Older Citizens. Specifically, the trial's aims are three-fold: assess the intervention's impact on community members' and students' HPV vaccine hesitancy (Aim 1) and perceptions and actions related to HPV vaccination (Aim 2) and evaluate other feasibility indicators at the community-, student-, organizational-, and process levels (Aim 3). The research team will use a concurrent mix-methods approach to assess feasibility indicators. Aims will be assessed using surveys, focus groups, meeting minutes, and implementation records. Data will be analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics and content coding. Determination of the intervention's feasibility will consider the achievement benchmarks for feasibility indicators individually and collectively. Data will be used to inform refinement and future testing of Appalachian Voices for Health.
