BEHAVIORAL

COVID-19 Group Problem Solving

The COVID-19 Group Problem Solving component incorporates popular education activities aimed at: developing social cohesion among LDLs; building awareness about COVID-19 risks and protective behaviors; and developing a plan of action to reduce theirs and their peers' risk for COVID-19 transmission. The intervention will be developed to take place over a \~30-45-minute period in order to fit within the corner context of LDLs waiting for employment, and will be delivered by promoters from our team and the community partner agency, Fe \& Justicia Workers Center. Following the completion of the intervention, a health promoter will be trained as a navigator assist participants who wish to get vaccinated by providing them with information about near-by vaccination sites that they can visit to get vaccinated. If needed, the promotor will assist them with making their vaccine appointment.

BEHAVIORAL

Standard of Care

The standard of care consists of the distribution of brochures containing COVID-19 prevention information.
