HPV Educational Interventions in 109 Populations

Team Maureen, a nonprofit dedicated to ending cervical cancer by educating about the HPV-Cancer connection and the importance of prevention and early detection, in collaboration with Brigham and 92s Hospital have a long history of providing education across Massachusetts MA about Human Papillomavirus HPV. Our work has resulted in meeting unmet needs and gaps in educating underserved and at risk populations; and our projects have been replicated nationwide and published in several peer-reviewed journals. Our next undertaking involves educational outreach with 109 oral health providers. This outreach will include adapting educational materials specifically for 109s and Tribal health centers, building relationships and networks with Tribal providers, coordinating training for providers, and making materials widely available for interested Tribal health providers.
