Financial Barriers

Financial barriers are obstacles that prevent individuals from accessing or affording necessary services or resources due to cost. This can include the inability to pay for healthcare, education, housing, or transportation. Such barriers can limit opportunities, impact well-being, and hinder social or economic participation. They often affect vulnerable populations, making it harder for them to improve their circumstances. Addressing financial barriers involves developing strategies like financial assistance, subsidies, or affordable options to ensure equitable access for all.
