This study is testing a new way to help people who are unhoused get screened for cervical cancer. Cervical cancer can often be prevented if it is found early. Many people who lack stable housing usually do not receive regular screenings. Through this project, the investigators will bring screening to community locations in Tucson, Arizona, using a mobile health unit (MHU) from the University of Arizona (UA) and El Rio Health. At these sites, participants will receive easy-to-understand education about cervical cancer, learn how to collect their own sample for human papillomavirus (HPV) testing, and get follow-up care if needed. The study has two goals: * First, the investigators will see if this community-based approach helps more people complete cervical cancer screening. * Second, the investigators will ask participants, clinicians, and outreach staff for their opinions about the program and its practicality and acceptability. By testing this approach, the investigators hope to find a way to make cervical cancer screening more accessible and effective for unhoused individuals.
