open in viewerMany people face barriers that prevent or limit access to needed health and social services. These barriers often result in health disparities. Our goal was to assist the Worcester Department of Health and Human Services in investigating the feasibility of expanding the Stigma Free Worcester mobile application, a Virtual Resource directory of public health and social service resources, to the fourteen largest cities in Massachusetts. We conducted eleven interviews and comparatively analyzed ten virtual resource tools. Based on our research, we identified the core considerations for developing a larger scale Virtual Resource Tool. We used these factors to recommend three potential courses of action that Worcester DHHS could take.
