The Intermountain West HPV Vaccination Coalition improved HPV vaccination by fostering collaboration. Key barriers included lack of education and concerns about sexuality, with religious leader buy-in being crucial for success.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Vaccinology
  • Community Engagement

Background:

  • Rural and highly religious areas in the Intermountain West face challenges with low Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination rates.
  • The Intermountain West HPV Vaccination Coalition (IWHVC) was established to address this by improving collaborations among various community stakeholders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe coalition members' perceptions and experiences regarding HPV vaccination efforts.
  • To identify barriers and facilitators to HPV vaccination uptake in the target region.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional online survey was administered to 86 IWHVC members.
  • Six focus groups (36 participants) were conducted to explore themes related to HPV vaccination barriers, facilitators, coalition utility, and engagement strategies.

Main Results:

  • Preferred vaccination sites included doctor's offices, public health clinics, and community health fairs.
  • Key barriers identified were lack of education, concerns about sexuality, and unawareness of the vaccine's recommendation for boys.
  • Gaining buy-in from religious leaders was emphasized, with the coalition facilitating advocacy through networking and information sharing.

Conclusions:

  • Collaborative, community-driven coalition efforts can enhance HPV vaccination rates.
  • This model of coordinated action holds potential for improving vaccination in other rural and religiously conservative regions.
