Disability Vaccine Access Opportunities Center Resource Hub Launch
Resources and toolkits are available to serve people with disabilities before, during and after public health emergencies at this link.
The Disability Vaccine Access Opportunities (DVAO) Center was established in 2021 with grant funding from the CDC Foundation to further vaccination access and uptake for people with disabilities. Managed by Able SC in collaboration with Independent Living Research Utilization (ILRU) and The Partnership for Inclusive Disaster Strategies, the DVAO Center provides training, resources, and support to disability-led centers for independent living (CILs) to ensure equitable access to vaccines for people with disabilities.
