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.

Case Study
The CO-SHARE (Co-Design of Services for Health and Reentry) study aimed to identify the health and reentry needs of those recently released from jail with specific input from those released from jail and service providers serving this population. The focus areas were: the prerelease process, one-stop service hubs, housing, and long-term support. Detailed recommendations were given, but the study primarily assesses the effectiveness of the EBCD (Experience-Based Co-Design) method in connecting community members and providers to create solutions.

Case Study
At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, health professions students created a free childcare system for health care workers (HCW). As their usual in-person rotations stopped abruptly, students volunteered their time to childcare. Volunteers and HCW were connected by geographical closeness, with an ideal 1:1 longitudinal pairing to reduce close contacts. The service was highly utilized.
