Summary Report/Recommendations
This article provides an overview of existing evidence on the effectiveness of various approaches to remote pediatric health care delivery and identifies areas for further research. The recommendations for further research, in particular, focus on opportunities to address health disparities through remote care strategies such as telemedicine.

Summary Report/Recommendations
This article describes how youth-serving community-based organizations in New York City and Amsterdam used techniques cultivated prior to the pandemic to support youth well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic. The article also details differences in the types of support offered based on differences in the level of government-support available in the U.S. versus the Netherlands.

Peer Review Study
This article describes G4H, an intervention to mitigate loneliness. This article identifies the need for more interventions to address loneliness and seeks to contribute to the evidence available through a randomized controlled trial where individuals participate in either a group based belonging intervention (G4H) or in cognitive behavioral therapy. The research takes place in Australia and included 174 people who received the intervention prior to COVID-19, with follow up measures collected after COVID-19. Results indicated that both CBT and G4H were effective at improving symptoms, but G4H showed higher benefits regarding loneliness, depression, and wellbeing.

Summary Report/Recommendations
This resource discusses Project: ACE-IT which is a school-based testing intervention implemented in Pennsylvania. The goal of the program was to reduce in-school transmission risks through routine testing for symptomatic and possibly asymptomatic staff and students. This program was originally adapted from a school-based program in Texas, and has expanded using a ‘train the trainer’ model with materials available on the website.

Peer Review Study
This article describes the rapid scale-up of adolescent telehealth services at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) Division of Adolescent Medicine. While the scale-up was partially effective in reaching some underserved populations (e.g., people living with HIV, people with substance use disorder, people living with mental illness), racial disparities in visit completion rates are concerning and would need to be addressed by sites replicating this intervention to avoid exacerbating health disparities. The practice strategy this article is focused on is adolescent telehealth services.
