Perspectives on Health-Related Social Needs Screening in Primary Care Among Black and Latine Patients.

Importance: Screening for health-related social needs (HRSNs) has become the standard of care, but little is known about patients' perceptions of whether and how screening and referral should be conducted, particularly among Black and Latine populations, who have variable rates of screening and resource receipt. Limited consideration of racism within HRSN frameworks and research underlies concerns that HRSN screening and referral systems may paradoxically exacerbate inequities.

Objective: To characterize Black and Latine patients' perspectives regarding (1) the suitability of HRSN screening and referral systems within primary care, (2) decision-making regarding HRSN disclosure, (3) contextual barriers and facilitators of equitable screening and referral, including processes underlying inequitable outcomes, and (4) implementation recommendations.

Transportation Access in the Transition to Adulthood: Navigating a Neurotypical World on the Autism Spectrum.

Despite documented transportation access challenges among autistic adolescents and young adults (AYAs), little is known about the processes through which transportation inaccessibility affects AYAs during the transition to adulthood. This qualitative analysis explores what underlies challenges for AYAs who have trouble accessing transportation in the transition to adulthood, how this inaccessibility affects their transition process, and suggestions for supporting AYAs in accessing transportation in the future. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with 27 culturally, linguistically, and economically diverse parents/caregivers of AYAs and five service providers.
