The purpose of this study is to evaluate health messaging strategies that help individuals with a high degree of housing-related needs engage in COVID-19 vaccination and testing behaviors. Findings from this research can help other communities determine how best to integrate social needs and COVID-19 prevention services. Participants' contact information will be shared with us by 211 with the participants' previously given consent. The study team will send via text message a link to a survey that includes a screen where they will provide informed consent. Those who provide consent will be randomly assigned to receive one of two surveys. The order of the offers is what varies across the surveys. Participants will be asked, along with other survey items, if they have been vaccinated against COVID-19. If they have not, they will be asked if they are interested in receiving help to receive a vaccine. Participants will also be asked if they are interested in receiving an at-home COVID self-test. If they say yes to assistance with vaccination, a vaccine navigator will call and assist them. If they say yes to receiving a COVID test, the study team will ship them a test that has been procured from the City of St. Louis Mayor's office. One month later participants will be sent a follow-up survey that asks about their experiences either with testing or with vaccination if applicable.
