This study is significant as it targets a population that has exceptionally high rates of morbidity and mortality due to COVID-19, influenza, pneumococcal pneumonia and shingles; and who demonstrate significant mistrust towards the vaccines. It is innovative in that investigators will harness the research team's extensive experience in developing multi-level and tailored interventions working with community partners to increase adult vaccine uptake among Latinos. Through this project the investigators will develop the experience and infrastructure for a scalable community-academic model that can be deployed and adapted to other communities (especially those with prevalent vaccine resistance) and other emerging public health threats. There is great potential for short- and long-term public health/economic impact in increasing adult vaccine uptake among high risk populations such as Latinos. This work will contribute to the body of evidence for effective behavioral- and community-based strategies to improve the health of Latinos.
