SUMMARY:2020 Virtual Fall Forum
DESCRIPTION:Better Health\, Stronger Democracy Agenda \nFood for a Healthier America Agenda \nEach fall\, GIH offers programming designed for funders with a strong interest in health policy. These meetings\, collectively known as the Fall Forum\, are an excellent opportunity for funders with a strong interest in health policy to get up-to-speed on current issues\, interact with leading thinkers\, and connect with their grantmaking peers. \nTo protect the health and well-being of the GIH community during the COVID-19 pandemic\, Grantmakers In Health convened the Fall Forum virtually this year. \nGIH’s virtual Fall Forum in 2020 provided policy-engaged funders with information on current issues\, access to leading thinkers\, and connections with grantmaking peers. The 2020 Fall Forum was broken into two timely and relevant programming series: \nBetter Health\, Stronger Democracy explored how health funders are promoting civic engagement\, protecting voter rights\, and engaging in post-census electoral redistricting.\nClick here for details \nFood for a Healthier America examined current food access and security policy\, the gaps and challenges laid bare by the COVID-19 pandemic\, the opportunities for positive policy change\, and philanthropy’s role in creating a more equitable and just food system.\nClick here for details

SUMMARY:2020 Fall Forum: Better Health\, Stronger Democracy
DESCRIPTION:Better Health\, Stronger Democracy explored how health funders are promoting civic engagement\, protecting voter rights\, and engaging in post-census electoral redistricting. \nBetter Health\, Stronger Democracy Agenda \nPost-Census Redistricting: Ensuring Fair Representation\nMonday\, November 16\, 3:00 – 4:30 pm ET\nThe redistricting process that takes place after each decennial census has profound implications for the fairness of representational democracy\, determining electoral districts for most federal legislators\, all state legislators\, and many local legislators. With the quality and accuracy of the 2020 census in question and procedures for apportionment under debate\, this redistricting cycle promises to be particularly controversial. This session described redistricting activities and timelines\, examine existing and emerging threats to fair representation\, and explore how philanthropic organizations can best inform and influence redistricting decisions to support historically underrepresented communities. \n\nDay 1 Opening Slides\nPresentation by Kathay Feng\nPresentation by Amy Dominguez-Arms\nPresentation by Regina Bell\n\nWebinar recording: \n \nPromoting Voter Engagement and Protecting Voter Rights\nThursday\, November 19\, 3:00 – 4:00 pm ET\nAlthough the COVID-19 pandemic has recently focused public attention on access to the ballot\, people of color have faced systemic barriers to voting since our nation’s founding. Political disenfranchisement results in a loss of power—the power to elect representatives with shared values and the power to advance policy priorities\, such as investments in education\, criminal justice reform\, safe and affordable housing\, and access to health care. This session reviewed effective strategies for increasing voter participation through integrated voter engagement\, policy advocacy\, and litigation; consider philanthropic trends in support for these activities; and explore the role of health funders in the civic engagement ecosystem. \n\nDay 2 Opening Slides\nPresentation by Alexis Anderson-Reed\nPresentation by Tanya Clay-House\n\nWebinar recording: \n \nAdvancing Health through Civic Engagement: Health Funders Weigh In\nFriday\, November 20\, 1:00 – 2:30 pm ET\nCivic engagement activities\, such as voting\, volunteering\, and community organizing\, are essential to the health of our democracy and a growing evidence base suggests these activities may also influence the health of individuals and communities. Health funders are increasingly recognizing that investments in civic engagement are necessary to advance population health goals related to health equity\, access to care\, and the social determinants of health. This facilitated discussion with health funders who have committed resources to civic engagement efforts explored why and how they have pursued these strategies\, review the processes used to make and monitor these funding decisions\, and consider the key lessons learned along the way. \n\nDay 3 Opening Slides\n\nWebinar recording:
