Participants were recruited via street intercept and outside four syringe service programs in the city. Surveys were conducted outdoors, with researchers and participants wearing masks and maintaining physical distance.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A total of 329 people participated in the survey. Participants reported an average age of 45.8\u00a0years, 69.6% identified as male, 32.6% identified as Hispanic\/Latino\/a and 22.3% identified as Black. Many experienced unstable housing\/street homelessness (65.9%) and half did not have regular smartphone access (51.1%).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Many participants were struggling to meet their basic needs and did not have the resources to participate in tele-remote research or surveillance. In-person engagement may help researchers build trust, explain data security measures, and decrease technology and comprehension barriers. As data inform policies and programs, researchers must center equity by including under-engaged groups in data collection activities.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/pubmed\/fdaf016","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,10]],"date-time":"2025-02-10T15:45:28Z","timestamp":1739202328000},"page":"375-379","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Centering equity through in-person data collection: short report"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"47","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7898-4386","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Izza","family":"Zaidi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) , 42-09 28th Street, 19th Floor, Long Island City, New York 11101 ,","place":["USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Leonardo","family":"Dominguez Gomez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) , 42-09 28th Street, 19th Floor, Long Island City, New York 11101 ,","place":["USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ashly E","family":"Jordan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) , 42-09 28th Street, 19th Floor, Long Island City, New York 11101 ,","place":["USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lauren","family":"Jessell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) , 42-09 28th Street, 19th Floor, Long Island City, New York 11101 ,","place":["USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alex","family":"Harocopos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) , 42-09 28th Street, 19th Floor, Long Island City, New York 11101 ,","place":["USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025053004265953100_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1167","DOI":"10.1080\/17441692.2021.1903528","article-title":"Big events theory and measures may help explain emerging long-term effects of current crises","volume":"16","author":"Friedman","year":"2021","journal-title":"Glob Public Health"},{"key":"2025053004265953100_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjgh-2022-011109","article-title":"Use of interviewer-administered telephone surveys during infectious disease outbreaks, epidemics, and pandemics: a scoping review","volume-title":"BMJ Global Health","author":"Arita","year":"2023"},{"key":"2025053004265953100_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"3","DOI":"10.1186\/s41256-022-00237-3","article-title":"Decolonizing global health: what should be the target of this movement and where does it lead us?","volume":"7","author":"Kwete","year":"2022","journal-title":"Glob Health Res Policy"},{"key":"2025053004265953100_ref4","article-title":"A Time for Optimism?
