Background: Partnering with young people to conduct research is fundamental to community mobilization. Recent restrictions on in-person interactions and engagement presented limitations for continued partnership with young people. Objective: To present a practical strategy and lessons learned to facilitate community-engaged research with youth in a virtual setting. Methods: Based on youth engagement tenets, the TEAM (t ailor the compensation package, e nsure meetings are accessible, a ccommodate personal needs, and m aintain the structure of in-person meetings) strategy was used to adapt the partnership to a virtual setting. Lessons Learned: Three lessons are discussed 1) the importance of maintaining social connectedness, 2) maximizing flexibility, and 3) focusing on creativity and competency building. Conclusions: The COVID pandemic forced researchers to rethink previous engagement practices that relied heavily on in-person interactions to be sustainable. The TEAM strategy is one way to successfully adapt practices and engage young people in virtual settings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
