There is a movement toward addressing social risk factors as part of healthcare delivery, with similar efforts launched by the CF Foundation. However, current social screening tools do not capture the unique risks and needs of people with CF, have not been tailored to adults with CF vs caregivers of children with CF, and have not been adapted to multidisciplinary CF care delivery. Our work also showed <20% of those who report needs access help, and found barriers related to stigma, guilt, or fear. It is critical to develop a social screening instrument that is specific to adults and caregivers of children with CF, acceptable to them, and rigorously tested for reliability and validity. Using a community-engaged process, we will systematically address these knowledge gaps.
