- Support implementation of models, i.e., projects that support community-based PCPs in providing care to women with I/DD;
- Educational resources: Develop additional educational resources for Primary Care Providers regarding the experiences of women with I/DD; and
- Research: Support regional or national research related to the care that women with I/DD receive from Primary Care Providers.
A secondary goal of this RFP is to foster new partnerships or significantly enhance existing partnerships between disability organizations, advocates, community organizations, and healthcare providers. Projects that intentionally address the experiences of Black women with I/DD, women of color with I/DD, and other historically-excluded perspectives within inclusive gender-based and gender-affirming care are also encouraged.
