Subject: [Nfbnet-members-list] Blind and low-vision adults needed for research to study barriers and facilitators to access HIV prevention services

 

The below research participant solicitation is being provided for informational purposes only. The National Federation of the Blind has no involvement in this research, but we believe that it may contribute to our research mission.

 

Dear Colleagues from the National Federation of the Blind, 

My name is Juliana Soares Linn, and I am doing my doctoral dissertation research to gather more

understanding on access to prevention services among people with disabilities in the United

States. The tile of the study is “Breaking the Cycle of Invisibility: Pilot Study of Barriers and

Facilitators for People Living With Disabilities to Access HIV Prevention Services in the United

States. Through this research, I am evaluating the extent to which HIV prevention services are

tailored to the needs of people living with disabilities, what are the facilitators and barriers to

care. I am currently recruiting representatives from disability groups in the United States to

participate in an online survey. I would like to invite you to take part in this online survey

because I feel that your experience can help my understanding and knowledge of how people

with disabilities are receiving care. The results of this research will be used to determine barriers

and facilitators to uptake and adoption of effective HIV prevention services. We hope results of

this study will inform future health policies to improve access to prevention health services for

people with disabilities.

If you agree to contribute with this study, please refer to this link for the online survey

https://breakingthecycleofinvisibility.com/survey/survey-on-access-to-hiv-prevention-services-for-people-living-with-disabilities-in-the-united-states  and full informed consent. This is an

anonymous online survey, and it should take about 15 minutes to complete. The questions will be 

about you, and your experience accessing prevention health services as a person living with

disabilities.

If you have any questions or suggestions about the online survey or this study in general, please

feel free to contact me at jumaputo at ad.unc.edu <mailto:jumaputo at ad.unc.edu> .

Kind Regards,

Juliana
