Getting to Yes, Michigan! (G2YMI)

Sponsor: University of Michigan

Summary

This study entitled Community-Centered Interventions for Improved Vaccine Uptake for COVID-19 (CIVIC): Getting to Yes, Michigan!, is designed to increase vaccine uptake among populations that experience COVID-19 related disparities. The investigators will focus on the four counties within Michigan where a disproportionate burden of COVID-19 is within African Americans and Latinx communities, i.e., Wayne, Genesee, Kent and Washtenaw Counties. Using a community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach, CIVIC will leverage: its long term relationships with the communities involved, an established CBPR Steering Committee developed and the knowledge gained as a Community Engagement Alliance (CEAL) grant recipient, the resources and networks of the University of Michigan CTSA (MICHR), and the expertise of our academic partners to identify and understand factors that contribute to COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in African Americans and Latinx communities in Michigan. The investigators will develop and test interventions based on community-centered approaches to achieve a primary goal of increased vaccine uptake. The investigators will achieve this goal with the following aims: 1. Increase understanding of the barriers and drivers of vaccine uptake and hesitancy; 2. Increase vaccine uptake and decrease vaccine hesitancy through the implementation and evaluation of a multi-component intervention; and maintain, enhance, and evaluate the effectiveness of the CIVIC partnership to equitably engage all partners.
