Youth-led Intervention for Cancer Screening

This study is testing a "Youth-led cancer screening intervention." High school students will be trained as health advocates to discuss cancer screening recommendations and risk factors with adults in their community. The study aims to see if this intervention can increase the rate of cancer screening among adults. You can join if you are a student at New Brunswick Health Sciences Technology High School (ages 15-18) and your adult family members (18+) who live in New Jersey. Adults must be eligible for at least one cancer screening (not including skin cancer). You and the youth must speak the same language (English or Spanish). The current status of the study is unclear.
