LUNGevity: Lung Cancer Stigma Community Based Participatory Research
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Lung Cancer
In brief
Lung cancer survival rates are low for intersectional underserved groups. Lung cancer stigma and intersectional stigma related to minoritized group status leads to increased morbidity and mortality and health disparities. Mindfulness interventions have been shown to decrease stigma and the negative impacts of stigma, however, these interventions have never been tested to decrease lung cancer stigma specifically. In this study, the investigators will use Community Based Participatory Research framework and MOST methodology to build and optimize a brief virtual mindfulness intervention to decrease lung cancer stigma, through first building a diverse coalition of lung cancer patients on a participatory action council.
