n=333 Participants
This group received a modified letter telling the participant they are out of date with their cervical cancer screening. They also received information on the self-sampling kit and were provided a card that they can send back to the study team in order to have a kit sent to their house. The kit included a pre-paid mailer so that it can be sent back to the lab for testing. Evalyn Self-Sampling Brush: A self-sampling brush to collect cervical cancer cells for screening purposes.
