Development and evaluation of an implementation strategy to increase HPV vaccination among underserved youth across Texas: a protocol paper
This paper presents the detailed protocol for developing and evaluating IM-AFT to successfully implement All for Them, leveraging a systematic, community- and theory-based approach and user experience with the strategy prototype. This study will contribute to expanding limited scientific knowledge about using multiple sources to develop and evaluate specified implementation strategies for effective implementation of school-based vaccination programs. Theory-based IM-AFT will guide collaborations between schools and community health centers to improve HPV and other adolescent vaccination rates in underserved communities in Texas.
