Increasing Access to Title X Services through Telehealth Webinar: Lessons from the Field

Have you wondered how other Title X agencies are addressing challenges related to scaling up telehealth services during the COVID-19 pandemic?  As a result of the pandemic, many Title X grantees and their networks rapidly scaled up telehealth services to meet the sexual and reproductive health needs of their clients. This interactive, discussion-based webinar recapped lessons learned from a 5-month peer learning group focused on telehealth services. Two Title X grantees and one subrecipient agency, as well as a former Title X grantee and representative from the Northeast Telehealth Resource Center, shared their experiences and lessons learned.
