Description
Summary:Objective Medical distrust is both a psychosocial construct and an underappreciated individual social determinant of health with the potential to affect oncology care and clinical trial participation. A community‐based participatory research effort, called the Forward Movement Project (FMP), identified multilevel factors affecting trust for healthcare and research in an underserved urban community. In FMP Phase II, we implemented a community‐responsive approach to provide lay‐oriented education and address misinformation, with the goal of beginning to remediate distrust for healthcare systems and biomedical research. Methods Community residents (N = 154 adults, 64% male, M = 61.5 years old, 53% annual income
