Let's learn about COVID 19 information being shared in our communities

The purpose of this project is to understand factors that contribute to/facilitate trustworthiness so that we can address those concerns in the COVID-19 communication materials we share. We will use concept mapping, which is a mixed method research approach for engaging voices and organizing ideas of a group of people to help understand complex concepts. We will take what we learn from Concept Mapping and use it to tailor NIH materials to be culturally responsive to their respective communities.

aerosol-borne SARS-CoV-2 in indoor environments

We are conducting a research study to determine whether the virus that causes COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) is present and viable in indoor air at a distance greater than 6 feet from people with active infections. To accomplish this, the research team will collect air samples with multiple sampling devices over a 4-5 hour period in the living environments of people with known SARS-CoV-2 infections. Sites include residence halls and homes (i.e., main living area) of people with active infections who are quarantining alone.

Adapting Community-based Task-shifting for the COVID-19 response among Underserved Populations in NC

This study is partnering with communities to identify the best ways to provide COVID-19 testing and vaccines to people who have been disproportionately affected by COVID-19. This includes communities of color, essential workers, immigrants and migrants, people in rural areas, and people with chronic diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure. We want to train community outreach workers and peer recruiters from community and faith-based organizations to help reach these underserved populations with COVID-19 testing and COVID-19 vaccines - a strategy known as "community-based task shifting." Thus, we will be conducting focus groups and theater testing sessions and questionnaires with patients who have received COVID-19 health services and focus groups and interviews with key stakeholders and theater testing sessions and questionnaires with individuals who work in community outreach or peer health education organizations for COVID-19 health services.

Medicaid Expansion and Deaths due to Opioid Overdose, Suicides, and Homicides among Formerly Incarcerated Persons (FIPs)

This project examines the impact of Medicaid expansion in two states (RI and KY) on opioid overdose deaths (OOD), suicides, and homicides deaths among formerly incarcerated persons (FIPs) using a comparison state that has not expanded Medicaid (North Carolina). It will also detail state-specific models from Kentucky (KY) and Rhode Island (RI) for expanding Medicaid. The hypothesized benefits of Medicaid expansion include increased access to substance abuse and mental health services and increased opportunities for legal employment.
