Test Up Now Education Program

"Intervention arm participants will receive one 45-minute face-to-face meeting followed by two phone calls in one-week intervals over a period of three weeks beginning within one month following baseline survey completion. These educational activities will include the use of National Cancer Institute colorectal cancer resources and materials, including a Screen to Save media presentation, and colorectal cancer brochures. The intervention will follow a conversation guide/standard script for intervention fidelity. Community Health Advisors will take notes following each interaction to document the call length and call details. Participants will receive an additional text message reminder once a week for an additional three weeks - with instructions for participants to text yes to confirm they received the message - for a total of six weeks of intervention delivery. The personalized text messages will include short messages about the benefits of colorectal cancer screening."

Control arm participants will receive a Fecal Immunochemical Test kit, a mailed targeted colorectal cancer brochure, and complete a follow-up telephone survey at 3- and 12-months after the mailing.
