Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to do the following:
- Youth-Centered Care & Engagement
- Explain the value of technology-based solutions and youth-driven perspectives for supporting young people’s sexual, reproductive, and overall health.
- Translate direct youth feedback into tangible actions that improve SBHC services, including structural competency for LGBTQ+ youth and culturally responsive practices for immigrant, neurodivergent, and other diverse student populations.
- Demonstrate effective techniques for engaging adolescents in care (e.g., sexual health, nutrition counseling, substance use, suicide risk, and emotional support) by fostering rapport, motivation, health literacy, and self-advocacy.
- Clinical Strategies & Care Delivery
- Identify and implement changes in staffing, care delivery models, productivity expectations, and SBHC structural practices that enhance student health outcomes and financial sustainability.
- Demonstrate knowledge of effective delivery changes, including nutrition integration, oral health programs, teledentistry models, suicide risk screening protocols (ASQ toolkit), and catch-up immunization schedules for diverse student populations.
- Apply best practices in screening, prevention, referral, and follow-up protocols across multiple areas of care (mental health, asthma/SDoH, substance use, immunizations).
- Equity, Cultural Responsiveness & Community Engagement
- Recognize the influence of social determinants of health (SDoH) on students (e.g., asthma, absenteeism, immigrant experiences) and identify feasible strategies for SBHCs to address them.
- Identify key responsibilities of patient navigators and apply engagement strategies for culturally sensitive outreach, especially for Pacific Islander, Hispanic, and immigrant students and families.
- Summarize insights from youth leaders and community-driven models (including peer-led support) that strengthen equity and trauma-informed, culturally responsive approaches to care.
- Collaboration, Team Alignment & Systems Thinking
- Establish a common language and foundational knowledge across school and clinic teams to support interdisciplinary collaboration.
- Develop strategies for stakeholder engagement, family partnerships, and resource-driven improvement in care areas such as immunizations, nutrition, oral health, and behavioral health.
- Strengthen SBHC capacity to lead and implement change while aligning service models with student, family, and community needs.
