Since the advent of COVID-19, community-based social service organizations in the aging sector have pivoted to deliver evidence-based programs (EBPs) remotely to reach older adults who are sheltering at home. The Evidence-Based Leadership Collaborative (EBLC) began learning from this crisis in Spring 2020 through surveys, interviews and conversations with EBP participants and leaders, AAAs and other community-based organizations, EBP administrators and policymakers. Presenters will share findings from our evaluation to understand whether and how these proven in-person programs are working when adapted to be delivered by phone, mail or video-conferencing. Specifically, we will share remote EBP implementation lessons learned regarding who is being reached and not reached through remote EBPs, facilitators and barriers to performing EBPs remotely and novel adaptations to engage and deliver EBPs remotely with traditionally underserved older populations. We will close with implications and resources for policymaking and practice, and ways for webinar attendees to get involved in future remote EBP education. This webinar includes complementary ASWB CE credits. Presenters
