About

Categorization: CEAL - Outreach through Organizations

Year: 2022

Aim: Outreach through Organizations set out to conduct rapid-cycle research that moves from audience analysis to message testing among priority populations in order to develop effective health communication strategies that are urgently needed to help counter challenges and reduce the disparities of COVID-19’s impact.

Outcome: The Design Studio supported Project 2 through the creation of an instructional booklet designed specifically for seniors, explaining how to use and interpret iHealth COVID-19 self-tests. These booklets were distributed in partnership with St. Louis Area Agency on Aging. This effort has led to 3000 homebound seniors receiving these booklet kits.
