Current and Past Projects
CVVP Support GroupThis project aims to establish a community support group in North Florida for individuals experiencing chronic vulvovaginal pain (CVVP), addressing challenges such as diagnostic delays, negative healthcare experiences, and interpersonal difficulties while enhancing mental well-being and quality of life. It also serves as the first step in developing a researcher-community partnership to design a provider sensitivity intervention, addressing gaps in CVVP diagnosis and care through a community-focused approach.
Supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Provider – Focused Fact SheetThis project seeks to increase public and medical knowledge of chronic vulvovaginal pain (CVVP) by developing accessible fact sheets for both healthcare providers and affected individuals. By addressing gaps in provider education and empowering patients, this initiative aims to improve diagnostic accuracy, reduce negative healthcare experiences, and enhance overall quality of life for those impacted by CVVP.
Supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation CVVP LGBTQ Multi-Phase Surveys This project conducts a series of surveys to explore the experiences of LGBTQ individuals with chronic vulvovaginal pain (CVVP), focusing on their healthcare interactions, coping strategies, and quality of life.
