Currently enrolling youth to meet enrollment goal of 100 participants Patient Portal Enrollment: Currently registering youth for EMR 37 out of 57 youth currently registered for portal access.

8 Implementation Successes and Challenges
We receive monthly reports from Epharmix and Follow My Health on youth utilization of product – reports indicate youth are engaged in project Our clinic population has reported the highest response rate for Epharmix surveys Receiving feedback from clinic staff that youth report liking text reminders Challenges: Staff Fatigue with day-to-day requirements of implementation/documentation Have not identified desired vendor for virtual support group Vendor challenges – vendor moved out of state during video production and creation of marketing plan Space challenges to complete enrollment in some clinical settings Steps for Overcoming Challenges?: Additional booster trainings for staff and designated “office hours” to provide additional support to staff Continue to interview vendors to build chat group appropriate for intervention

9 Outreach and Recruitment

10 Recruitment/Marketing Materials: Before Youth Advisory Council Meeting
Notes - Youth Feedback: People look ”too old” for youth Doesn’t portray “privacy” – people are looking over each other’s shoulders to read text messages Too Wordy – difficult to read Youth ”don’t brunch” The blue print-add looks like an alien and is “creepy”

11 Recruitment/Marketing Materials: After Youth Advisory Council Meeting

12 Recruitment Successes and Challenges
MCM staff have been effective in referring clients into the program We are over 50% of our enrollment goal Being physically present in clinical spaces (e.g. The SPOT)helps with referrals during visit Balancing persistence and giving space Steps for Overcoming Challenges?: MCM staff can directly schedule SPNS enrollment on a shared calendar SPNS PC/PA review eligibility one week before every medical clinic and send eligibility to MCM staff Additional resources allocated to meet transportation needs Staff attend scheduled clinic sessions to complete on-site enrollment Challenges: Estimated 50% no-show rate for scheduled enrollments Barriers of Enrollment: transportation barriers, sporadic cell phone coverage, and competing priorities(family obligations, work, etc.) Some staff have reported difficulty referring clients into the program Space challenges to meet with referred clients in clinical settings
