If detected early, hypertension (HTN) is treatable; yet, HTN screening rates are low and inequitable in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) leaving many people with undiagnosed HTN, especially in urban areas. Thus, it is a high priority to determine the acceptability, effectiveness, and sustainability of strategies to increase rates of BP screening and connections to care in SSA. The overarching goals of this project are to: 1. Adapt evidence-based implementation strategies - called community vital signs (CVS) strategies - to support BP screening and connections to care; 2. Implement the CVS strategies and assess acceptability, test their effectiveness in improving rates of BP screening and connections to care, and understand facilitators and barriers to their sustainability.
