First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 14, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study aims to uncover the reasons why some vaccine programs succeed in boosting vaccine confidence among historically marginalized racial and ethnic groups, while others do not. Researchers will interview 80 parents, clinicians, and public health experts to gather insights. No treatments or vaccines are being tested; instead, the goal is to learn how to make future vaccine efforts more effective for everyone.

Who is studied
The population of 30 adult parents of children 12-24 months will be identified from a clinical database of patients registered at Boston Medical Center (BMC). The 35 clinicians will be identified from from Pediatrics, Family Medicine, or obstetrics and gynecology (OB/GYN) at BMC. The sample will include 20 Community Health Workers, 10 pediatric/family Medicine clinicians, and 5 Obstetricians. Recruitment will focus on clinicians who have a history of successful vaccine-specific Evidence-Based Interventions (EBIs) beyond BMC and its affiliated CHCs. The 15 evidence based interventions (EBI) experts will be identified from a review of published peer-review articles in the fields of vaccine EBIs, implementation science, and prenatal genetic counseling.
