Summary

This pilot study tests the feasibility and preliminary impact of a protocolized promotora-led navigation intervention to improve behavioral health access among Latinx and Native American underserved adults. The study is embedded within a community cultural center, leveraging a trusted and culturally grounded environment for recruitment and intervention delivery. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either the promotora navigation intervention or a treatment-as-usual (TAU) condition consisting of cultural resources and promotora-supported wait-list control. The TAU group will continue to receive any usual care during the study period and will be offered the protocolized navigation intervention after completing follow-up assessments. Primary outcomes include feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary changes in behavioral health access, stress reduction, self-efficacy, and wellbeing.

Protocolized Promotora-Led Navigation

Participants in this group will receive the CAPAZ protocolized navigation intervention, in which trained promotoras-supported by the Lead Study Navigator and the Principal Investigator (PI)-deliver structured, individualized health navigation. The intervention will follow a defined protocol that includes behavioral health screening, care coordination, and facilitated referrals to mental health services, primary care, and social-cultural or community resources as needed. The model also allows participants to integrate cultural and traditional healing practices into their care plan. Each participant will receive up to six promotora sessions over 12 weeks, focusing on improving access to care, stress reduction, and overall wellbeing.
