SUMMARY:Prioritizing America’s Youngest Children
DESCRIPTION:Early childhood is a critical time to build lifelong health and learning. Young children do well when they are raised in supportive families and communities and participate in high-quality early childhood programs. Despite this evidence\, the United States invests considerably less money in these early years than in K-12 education. Recently the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Commission to Build a Healthier America issued its latest set of recommendations\, one of which calls for greater public and private investments in early childhood development as a way of promoting a lifetime of better health and learning. In this webinar\, speakers discussed foundation strategies that address early childhood. Speakers included: Ellen Braff-Guajardo of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation; Paula Braveman of the University of California\, San Francisco; Joelle-Jude Fontaine of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation; Kristin Schubert of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation; and Jessie Rasmussen of the Buffett Early Childhood Fund. \nRelated Content\n\nPresentation: Prioritizing America’s Youngest Children – PDF document\, 3991 KB\nRWJF Issue Brief: Early Childhood Experiences Shape Health and Well-being Throughout Life – PDF document\, 1110 KB

SUMMARY:Outreach and Enrollment Learning Community - June
DESCRIPTION:This month’s call was an exchange of ideas on grantmaker roles in outreach and enrollment going forward.

How are grantmakers incorporating lessons from the first round of outreach into their work? To what extent are funders changing or broadening grantmaking strategies in this area (for example\, by developing new partnerships\, undertaking advocacy\, or providing public-sector support)? \nRelated Content\n\nPresentation: Outreach and Enrollment Community – June – PDF document\, 185 KB

SUMMARY:Collective Impact: A High Performing Approach to Change
DESCRIPTION:Grantmakers around the country are embracing collective impact as a rigorous approach to bringing together a group of actors from different sectors to commit to a common agenda for solving a specific social problem. While collective impact can lead to meaningful results at scale\, it requires new mindset shifts and a long term commitment from all participating partners. The collective impact approach is particularly relevant in the health sector\, with new reforms underway and continuing complexity in the health space. \nThis webinar presented the collective impact model\, and explored the role of funders in creating and sustaining the collective process. Participants heard from health grantmakers implementing a collective impact initiative to reduce infant mortality by mobilizing\, facilitating\, coordinating\, and increasing engagement of multi-sector partners. Speakers included: John Kania and Jennifer Splansky Juster of FSG\, and Kathleen Holmes and Melissa Logsdon of Missouri Foundation for Health. \nRelated Content\n\nCollective Impact: A High Performing Approach to Change – PDF document\, 1156 KB
