The COVID-19 pandemic has brought particular challenges for essential workers and parents. In this webinar, we hear from Jevay Grooms of Howard University and Anna Gassman-Pines of Duke University. Dr. Grooms talks about her research on the effect of the pandemic on the mental health of essential workers, and especially essential workers of color, and on parents whose students are engaged in distance learning. Dr. Gassman-Pines discusses findings from a survey of hourly service workers with children and the effect of the pandemic on their mental health.
