Behavioral: COVID-19 Group Problem Solving
This group will have three core components to be delivered at the corner by trained data
collectors. Interactive dialogue component that incorporates popular education activities
aimed at developing social cohesion among LDLs, building awareness about COVID-19 risks
and protective behaviors and developing a plan of action to reduce their and their peers'
risk for COVID-19 transmission. Navigation Component will consist of providing
information and linking LDLs with social service providers that can help buffer some of
the social and economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the "Multiplicador de
salud"/Health Multiplier component that builds from the theoretical and practice-based
method of mobilizing social networks and social support, defined as encouraging social
networks to provide informational, emotional, appraisal, and instrumental support as
cited in the Taxonomy of Behavior Change Methods.

Behavioral: Booster session
Participants will have a 10 - 15 minute "booster' session about a week after engaging in
the small group intervention. They will be contacted by phone and the booster will
consist of brief prompts to engage participants in a discussion to encourage them to act
on their personal commitments to protect themselves and others against COVID. They will
also be encouraged to seek COVID related resources based on the information provided
during the small group intervention.
