African American and African-Born Black Women's Perspectives and Experiences with a Cervical Health Education and HPV-Self Sampling Intervention.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: A combination of cervical cancer prevention education and the provision of HPV self-collection kits has been found to increase the uptake of HPV testing among women. However, there is limited research evaluating the perspectives and experiences of women who have participated in a cancer prevention education and received a complimentary HPV self-collection kit. We report the experiences of women who took part in Health is Wealth: a cervical health intervention and received a complimentary HPV self-sampling kit for cervical cancer screening. Methods: This pilot qualitative study enrolled twenty-four women who participated in one-on-one semi-structured interviews to provide feedback and recommendations for improving future iterations of the intervention. <
