Missourians with disabilities, particularly those living in rural communities, face significant challenges in accessing health promotion opportunities. Drawing on recent findings from a statewide needs assessment, this session will explore the work of the Missouri Disability and Health Program (MODHP), which is actively addressing barriers such as high costs, limited recreational resources, and gaps in accessible care.
Attendees will learn about MODHP's innovative initiatives, including community partnerships and targeted strategies that promote better health outcomes for individuals with disabilities. The session will also examine real-world barriers and facilitators to access, present levels of program impact, and encourage discussion on how providers, administrators, and community professionals can advance disability-inclusive health efforts across the state.
