Summary

This is a mixed-methods Hybrid Type 1 research design (efficacy study) in which we aim to conduct a two-arm randomized controlled trial and an Implementation Focused Process Evaluation of a culturally-targeted video and referral screening tool.

In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the efficacy of a culturally targeted video previously developed by the research team vs. a Spanish-language fact sheet from an established group on enhancing genetic counseling and testing uptake and psychosocial outcomes in Latina women at risk for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer.

The investigators will test the video's efficacy while also gathering data on the implementation and future sustainability of using the Risk Screening Tool (RST) and video in community clinics.

Conditions

  • Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Culturally Targeted Narrative Video: "Is My Cancer Hereditary? Rosa Visits a Genetic Counselor."

Participants randomized to the video arm will receive a link with a password by email or text message to watch the video, depending on participants' preference. Participants without internet access will receive a DVD. Participants will be instructed to watch the video alone with no interruptions. We will ask them not to share the link with others.

Participants will receive a PDF of the fact sheet by email, text message, or a printed fact sheet by mail depending on participants' preferences. The fact sheet includes information about genes, breast cancer, risk factors for HBOC, genetic counseling and testing, and resources.
