Over the last year, FVH has prioritized addressing health equity issues. Focus groups have been an important tool in reaching Florida’s marginalized communities. In 2021, FVH hosted a series of 7 roundtables featuring over 50 disabled Floridians, their families, and caregivers. FVH then completed a thematic analysis to better understand the barriers to care that Floridians with disabilities face.
The lived experiences of the roundtable participants reveal significant disparities in health access and outcomes for Floridians with disabilities.
