Abstract

We identified preferences toward Community Preventive Services Task Force (CPSTF)-recommended intervention approaches among screen-eligible Zuni Pueblo members in New Mexico, USA and assessed if there were significant differences in those preferences, with the goal of informing the selection of intervention approaches for use in the Zuni Pueblo. We utilize data from a population-based survey (n = 280) focused on 15 CPSTF-recommended intervention approaches designed to improve screening for cervical, breast, and/or colorectal cancer screening. Model-adjusted results suggest some intervention approaches garnered significantly higher support than others. We offer six, data-driven recommendations for consideration by public health practitioners as they endeavor to improve cancer prevention in the Zuni Pueblo. This study provides a replicable model for other public health practitioners and health services researchers to incorporate community preferences in community-level intervention approach selection.
