What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) knowledge

    Participants will be interviewed regarding their HCV knowledge on Day 1 prior to receiving educational materials. They will be interviewed once again approximately one week after receiving educational materials.

    Measured: Day 1 & Day 7

  2. Change in Colorectal Cancer (CRC) knowledge

    Participants will be interviewed regarding their CRC knowledge on Day 1 prior to receiving educational materials. They will be interviewed once again approximately one week after receiving educational materials.

    Measured: Day 1 & Day 7

  3. Hepatitis C Virus Screening Status

    Data about participants' HCV screening status will be collected from Federally Qualified Health Care Center's (FQHC) 6 months after participants have received educational materials.

    Measured: at 6 months

  4. Colorectal Cancer Screening Status

    Data about participants' CRC screening status will be collected from Federally Qualified Health Care Center's (FQHC) 6 months after participants have received educational materials.

    Measured: at 6 months
