Abstract

The enhancement to this project will develop and implement strategies and activities that address the added vulnerability of COVID-19 for individuals living with sickle cell disease. The project is broadened to support two larger groups made more vulnerable by COVID-19: children and youth with special healthcare needs and those affected by inequities in the healthcare system, especially African-Americans. The project team will develop and disseminate tailored COVID-19 messaging and solutions to healthcare providers, community health workers, and other healthcare professionals across the country.
