SUMMARY:When Two Public Health Crises Collide: COVID-19 and Gun Violence
DESCRIPTION:This content was originally slated for the 2020 GIH Annual Conference on Health Philanthropy in Minneapolis\, Minnesota. \nWith COVID-19 spreading throughout our country\, people are trying to adapt to home isolation and are stocking up on supplies like toilet paper and canned goods—and guns. If history is our guide\, the surge in gun purchases in response to the COVID-19 pandemic could be followed by an increase in intimate partner violence\, suicides\, and hate crimes. This convergence of two public health crises portends tragic results\, especially for those most vulnerable in our society.  During this webinar\, participants learned more about the importance of addressing gun violence in the midst of a global pandemic and how we can ensure safe and healthy communities now and long after the virus runs its course. Speakers included Alex Johnson of The California Wellness Foundation\, Brian Malte of the Hope and Heal Fund\, and Amoretta Morris of The Annie E. Casey Foundation. \n \n

SUMMARY:COVID-19: Impact on Care for Persons with Serious Illness
DESCRIPTION:People living with serious illness\, the majority of whom are also older adults\, are at the highest-risk for contracting COVID-19. Already facing many daily challenges\, these vulnerable people and their families are finding that barriers to care are being exacerbated by the epidemic.

SUMMARY:Organizing Health Professionals for Action in the Era of Coronavirus
DESCRIPTION:This content was originally slated for the 2020 GIH Annual Conference on Health Philanthropy in Minneapolis\, Minnesota. \nThe emergence of COVID-19 has exposed the many ways health systems and societal structures impede equitable health for all. At times like these\, it is crucial for decisionmakers to hear from health professionals\, grassroots organizers\, and directly impacted communities who are working together to advance equity solutions. Such advocacy does not come naturally to health professionals\, many of whom are most comfortable operating within their areas of expertise. The participants joined a candid discussion with health funders and advocates about efforts to mobilize the health sector in support of social justice movements. Speakers included Caroline Brunton of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation\, Lili Farhang of Human Impact Partners\, and Sandra Witt of The California Endowment.

SUMMARY:Foundations Providing Emergency Loans to FQHCs
DESCRIPTION:Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and other safety net providers are playing a vital role in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. While these community-based providers are screening\, triaging\, and testing patients exposed to the virus—as well as continuing to deliver regular primary care—drastic revenue losses threaten their ability to sustain operations. As the resources of the safety net are being strained like never before\, FQHCs are in need of continuing and additional support from philanthropy. During this time of creative and flexible grantmaking\, funders are considering working with community development financial institutions to advance capital through low-interest to no-interest loans in order to help providers weather the economic disruptions caused by the pandemic. This strategy can also be adapted to support upstream providers of essential health-promoting services. On this webinar\, participants learned more about loans and how foundations are engaging in this approach. Speakers included Gil Alvarado of Sierra Health Foundation\, Pablo Bravo of Common Spirit Health\, Elena Marks of Episcopal Health Foundation\, and Lisa Richter of Avivar Capital. \nSlides: \n\nFoundations Providing Emergency Loans to FQHCs\n\nWebinar Recording:

SUMMARY:Including the Person in Person-Centered Care
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Grantmakers In Aging \n“Person-centered” can feel like a buzz word rather than a practical approach to improving care for people with complex needs. Person-centered care by its very nature needs to engage care recipients as equal partners in the planning\, developing\, monitoring\, and evaluation of care as well as in policy and programmatic discussions that impact delivery systems for high-need\, high-cost individuals. To truly achieve person-centered care\, we must ensure the voices of older adults and others with complex care needs are at the center of local\, state\, and federal efforts to deliver care that people want\, need\, and deserve\, and that they hold true decisionmaking power. Learn about our discussion on successful and effective strategies to authentically partner with people with complex needs and truly advance person-centered policy and programming. Speakers included Ann Hwang of Community Catalyst\, Melinda Karp of Commonwealth Care Alliance\, and Susan Mende of Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. \nWebinar Recording:

SUMMARY:Policies to Support Caregivers: Opportunities for Philanthropy
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Grantmakers In Aging \nSupporting over 40 million family caregivers in the United States requires effective and innovative policies at the local\, state\, and national levels. Philanthropy has played a key role in supporting policy change for caregivers\, from supporting tools\, resources\, and reports like the National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine report\, Families Caring for an Aging America\, to convening stakeholders through statewide task forces and the newly launched Home Alone Alliance. On this webinar\, participants learned about the current state of family caregiving policy and efforts to create new and innovative policies across the country. Some of these new and exciting efforts include the work of the newly convened RAISE Act Advisory Council\, the RAISE Act Resource and Dissemination Center\, and the Home Alone Alliance. This webinar also explored the opportunities for collaborative policy partnerships and the strategies available to grantmakers to better support caregivers. Speakers included Susan Reinhard of AARP Public Policy Institute and Center to Champion Nursing in America\, Rani Snyder of The John A. Hartford Foundation\, and Carol Zernial of WellMed Charitable Foundation. \nWebinar Recording:
