Case Study
A large school district in Cincinnati partnered with their local health department and children’s hospital to develop mitigation procedures as children returned to school. These mitigation procedures successfully limited school-based spread of COVID-19 by combining best practices in rapid testing, contact tracing, and early isolation. Procedures were regularly revisited and updated in an iterative process to respond to new information and circumstances.

Peer Review Study
This paper outlines how to structure a youth-friendly community-based participatory research environment to maintain strong partnerships over time. It highlights a case study from Bronx Youth as Partners in Community-Based Participatory Research which aimed to prevent and reduce mental health and other health disparities among both Latino and Black adolescents in the Bronx. Key components to positive partnerships with youth include acknowledging the developmental needs and capacities of youth, understanding the autonomy and experience in decision-making youth have, and being aware of the age timeline that youth are considered adolescents before becoming adults. Strategies for implementing these components include using a Youth Development framework that is a strength-based approach to engagement, integrates structure, uses paid trained staff, accommodates times around schedules, and ensures activities are engaging and youth-friendly. Authors note the importance in offering opportunities for youth to take on tasks that build on their strengths and interests.
