Join the inaugural Rural HPV Vaccination Learning Community starting mid-March.
Research shows that rural communities lag 10% behind the national average for HPV vaccination. And HPV vaccination underperforms compared to other ACIP recommended vaccines, including Tdap and MenACWY. Therefore, we are seeking rural healthcare partners to join a learning community focused on improving HPV vaccination among 9–12-year-olds.
Through a series of virtual sessions and peer-based learning, the rural disparities HPV vaccination learning community will use quality improvement (QI) and evidence-based interventions to increase vaccine rates. This no-cost, practical how-to model will serve as a forum for health partners to gain knowledge, exchange promising practices, and talk through challenges to increasing HPV vaccinations in rural settings.
The American Cancer Society’s Global HPV Cancer Free program, along with partners in India and Kenya, is excited to share new tools and resources. These resources support organizations in higher-burden, lower-resourced communities to engage health care professionals to increase HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccination coverage among adolescent girls and stop cervical cancer before it even starts.
We invite you to explore PreventGlobalHPVcancers.org and share it with your global health networks. We have created images and messages for you to easily share in the Partner Launch Toolkit.
