The COVID-19 pandemic has forced rapid, large changes in the areas of remote working, distance learning, online shopping, online socializing, day-to-day travel patterns, and long distance travel. Many of these changes were happening already, but COVID-19 has pressed the fast-forward button. Which behavioral changes will be long-lasting, and for whom? How, if at all, are attitudes shifting in this crisis, and will these shifts be long-term? This Working Group will use a national survey to answer such questions and develop insights into what American way of life may look like in the aftermath of COVID-19
