Promise Women Project

Overview

The goal of this study is to develop and test an intervention program to improve cervical cancer prevention among Muslim American women. The main questions the investigators aim to answer are: * Will the religiously tailored and culturally appropriate intervention program improve participants' knowledge and acceptance of cervical cancer prevention? * Is the intervention program feasible to conduct and acceptable to participants? Participants will be asked to: * Attend focus group sessions to provide input on the development of educational materials. * Complete pre- and post-intervention surveys to measure changes in knowledge and acceptance of cervical cancer prevention. * Engage in the intervention program, which includes education and experiential practice/communication skills training. * Provide feedback through satisfaction surveys. Researchers will compare participant outcomes before and after the intervention to assess its effectiveness. Additionally, the program's feasibility and acceptability will be evaluated based on enrollment rates, successful implementation, participant engagement, retention, and satisfaction.

This project involves creating special educational materials for Muslim women to learn about cervical cancer prevention. The investigators will engage in discussions with 10 Muslim women during dedicated group sessions to ensure the suitability of the materials. They will also seek input from Muslim religious leaders. Subsequently, they will conduct surveys before and after the program to assess the effectiveness of the materials in facilitating women's learning and comprehension of cervical cancer prevention. To determine its efficacy and acceptability, the investigators will implement the program with an additional 20 women and gather their feedback. The goal of this project is to promote the health and well-being of Muslim women by providing them with culturally and religiously sensitive information regarding cervical cancer prevention.
