This project will assess the effect of providing an enhanced digital texting intervention-Dulce Digital-COVID Aware (DD-CA) to Hispanic patients with type 2 diabetes upon discharge from recent hospitalization. Key outcomes will assess the impact of DD-CA on hospital readmissions at 30 and 90 days post-discharge, glucose control, and patient reported outcomes at 90 days post-discharge, while also assessing COVID status.

This project will integrate machine learning approaches and large-scale SSI research to rapidly test potent, accessible strategies for reducing adolescent major depression during COVID-19.

Digital mental health (DMH) interventions for PTSD address well-documented barriers to traditional in-person psychotherapy or telehealth delivery of evidence-based treatments (EBTs) for PTSD, but many consumers do not remain engaged. Thus, acceptable, efficient, and engaging forms of EBTs are sorely needed.

There is a large and growing literature quantifying disparities in outcomes related to COVID-19, but less is known about how the pandemic has affected access to care as well as associated health outcomes among vulnerable populations.

The overarching objective of this project is to rigorously assess how state-level COVID-19 mitigation policies have affected psychological health and related mortality from drug overdose and suicide among working age and older adults.

This project aims to identify mechanisms underlying gender, racial and ethnic minority, and sexual minority disparities in parenting stress and parental well-being during COVID and this period of intense racial trauma.

COVID-19 has led to disruptions and delays in routine pediatric care, including for children with diabetes. Routine pediatric visits have been reduced or transitioned to telemedicine due to COVID- 19, creating barriers for those without technology and internet capabilities.

This project examines ways in which the COVID-19 pandemic amplifies the socio-cultural stressors and health disparities experienced by Mexican-origin, low-income adolescents who are making the transition to young adulthood.

There is a critical need to develop and test scalable digital approaches which can identify, address and support the well-being of healthcare workers (HCW) over time and beyond the pandemic.

The pandemic has disrupted care transitions from hospitals to home healthcare agencies and nursing homes, which may lead to important health outcomes consequences, including the widening of existing health disparities.
