Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Lay Health Advisor Education Intervention

The individualized health education intervention consisted of an intensive, reinforced, face to face, interactive educational program. The program included an initial meeting of 45 60 minutes, followed by two telephone calls and reinforcement by a series of four postcards mailed at regular intervals and a second visit. Each woman will be enrolled in the intervention program for approximately 12 to 14 months.

BEHAVIORAL

Usual Care Group

All women over age 18 encouraged to obtain Pap smears appropriate for their risk profile, the comparison arm included a low-literacy brochure to encourage women to receive screening. The brochure was designed to answer basic questions about Pap smears and provide instructions on how to obtain a Pap smear.
