Understanding HPV Vaccine Hesitancy Among Multiethnic Parents in Los Angeles
This NCI Cancer Center Support Grant supplement, selected as one of 11 NCI-designated cancer centers funded in the third round of NCI HPV supplements (September 2020 – December 2021), aimed to understand HPV vaccine hesitancy in populations in the USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center catchment area. In partnership with the USC Neighborhood Academic Initiative, we assessed parental HPV vaccine hesitancy, medical mistrust, HPV vaccination barriers, and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on adolescent HPV vaccine uptake. We also conducted community focus groups, relayed findings to local coalitions and the California HPV Vaccine Roundtable to develop parent educational materials and targeted parent, adolescent, and provider messaging for specific low uptake communities in Los Angeles.
