Long Covid Families

Advancing research, medical care, and educational
access for children with Long COVID.

Long COVID is changing childhood
for millions of children.

6 million

children in the United States have Long COVID

Up to 20%

of children develop Long COVID after a COVID infection

We work so illness does not decide
what is available to a child.

When Childhood Slips Out of Reach

Long COVID can change what a child is able to do. A child who ran every afternoon now rests after the stairs. A child who read for hours can no longer focus past the second page. Some days they cannot go to school. The ordinary moments of childhood can pass them by.

What a child is able to do may change.
What is available to them should not.

We Change What Is Available
to Kids With Long COVID

1

Help Shape
the Research

We sit on national research committees, coauthor published pediatric Long COVID studies, and advise researchers.

2

Bring Evidence
to Decision Makers

We brief the leaders and policymakers whose decisions shape children’s medical care and schooling.

3

Turn Evidence
Into Solutions

We train the professionals who work with children every day, serve on working groups, and build the resources they use.

Our work includes national research collaborations and partnerships with healthcare, public health, and education systems.
