Summary

Cancer is a leading cause of death among Hispanic/Latino individuals, partly due to screening barriers. This study shares an innovation in which eight cancer survivors created short videos sharing their experiences to motivate others to get screened. Among 51 participants overdue for screening, all intended to get screened after viewing, and 45% did so within seven months; 89% of screened participants said the videos strongly influenced their decision. Barriers like time, access, and fear affected actual screening completion, but acceptability was high.
