SUMMARY:Enrolling Young Adults: Outreach and Education Strategies From The Field
DESCRIPTION:GIH Health Reform Resource Center Fund Audioconference \nWhen: \nDecember 5\, 2012 at 2:00 pm Eastern/1:00 pm Central/12:00 pm Mountain/11:00 am Pacific \nWho: \n\nAaron Smith\, Young Invincibles\nKimberley Chin\, The Atlantic Philanthropies\nChris Kelly\, California Health Benefit Exchange\n\nWhat: \nHealth foundations are poised to play a significant role in supporting state and local efforts to enroll all eligible residents into health insurance exchanges. Nearly 17 million low-income young adults will gain health insurance coverage under the Affordable Care Act\, either through Medicaid expansion programs or by become eligible for subsidies to purchase health insurance in the exchanges. Enrolling this demographic is critical to the overall success of health care reform yet young adults have historically been difficult to reach. On this webinar\, we heard from Aaron Smith who shared Young Invincibles’ upcoming national youth enrollment and education campaign; Kimberly Chin of The Atlantic Philanthropies who discussed the foundation perspective on youth outreach and education\, and the potential to involve state grantees in this work; and Chris Kelly of the California Health Benefit Exchange who discussed some of California’s plans to reach out to and enroll young adults in the state exchange. \nRelated Content\n\nKelly Presentation – PDF document\, 1606 KB\nSmith Presentation – PDF document\, 840 KB

SUMMARY:2012 Fall Forum: Health Care Transformed: Better Delivery for Those Most in Need
DESCRIPTION:Improving the quality of health care delivery is a hallmark of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Provisions in the health care law encourage and support innovative approaches to transform the health care system to one that improves quality\, increases access\, eliminates waste\, and reduces costs\, particularly for those with multiple chronic conditions. \nHealth Care Transformed: Better Delivery for Those Most in Need was designed to inform funders’ work. Discussion topics included: \n\npromising innovations in health care delivery models\,\nnecessary elements for creating a patient-centered medical home\,\npayment reform\, and\nthe work of fellow funders supporting coordinated care efforts in their communities.\n\nThursday\, November 15 \nKeynote Speaker: Jeffrey Brenner\, Camden Coalition of Healthcare Providers \nThe first day of the Fall Forum focused on transforming care for high-cost\, high-need patients. This relatively small share of patients—those with multiple chronic or complex conditions and those with needs that span the spectrum of behavioral\, social\, and medical care—account for a disproportionate share of health care costs\, even though the outcomes of their care are not always commensurate with the costs. Can health care systems be transformed to better meet the needs of the neediest without increasing the cost burden? Promising experiences suggest that both better outcomes and cost savings for all are possible through a focus on high-cost\, high-need patients. \nFriday\, November 16 \nKeynote Speaker: Mitchell Katz\, Los Angeles Department of Health Services \nThe second day of the Fall Forum focused on the creation and expansion of patient-centered medical care\, especially within the safety net. Funders\, providers\, and field experts will discuss the ways in which the ACA is supporting the development and diffusion of patient-centered medical care; required elements to create and sustain health homes within primary care practices; issues surrounding payment reform and costs savings; the integration of behavioral and mental health services; evaluating patient experiences; and shared examples of successes in the field. Ample evidence exists to demonstrate the value and cost savings of patient-centered care—can the vision be turned into a reality? \n  \nMEETING LOCATION \nThe Fairfax at Embassy Row\n2100 Massachusetts Avenue NW\nWashington\, DC 20008 \nRelated Content\n\n2012 Fall Forum Brochure – PDF document\, 1649 KB\n2012 Fall Forum Registration Form – PDF document\, 343 KB\nAdditional Hotels – Microsoft Word document\, 12 KB\nBrenner Presentation – PDF document\, 7113 KB\nFeder Presentation – PDF document\, 228 KB\nHodin Presentation – PDF document\, 1221 KB\nSerota Presentation – PDF document\, 720 KB\nAlexander Presentation – PDF document\, 554 KB\nDiPietro Presentation – PDF document\, 198 KB\nGreenwald Presentation – PDF document\, 699 KB\nIngoglia Presentation – PDF document\, 325 KB\nAbrams Presentation – PDF document\, 661 KB\nHong Presentation – PDF document\, 218 KB\nPhillips Presentation – PDF document\, 550 KB\nScholle Presentation – PDF document\, 348 KB\nBerenson Presentation – PDF document\, 114 KB\nLong Presentation – PDF document\, 375 KB\nSandman Presentation – PDF document\, 141 KB

SUMMARY:Protecting Our Nation's Public Health Successes: Community Water Fluoridation
DESCRIPTION:GIH Oral Health Audioconference Series \nWhen: \nFriday\, November 2\, 2012 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern /1:00 p.m. Central /12:00 p.m. Mountain /11:00 a.m. Pacific \nWho: \n\nMatt Jacob\, Pew Children’s Dental Campaign\nTracy Dannen Grace\, Kaiser Permanente Foundation\nCatherine Hayes\, Health Resources In Action\nPeter Mitchell\, SalterMitchell\n\nWhat: \nOver the years\, the United States has invested in a number of successful public health programs that have resulted in positive health outcomes for millions of people. Community water fluoridation\, hailed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as one of the 20th Century’s greatest public health achievements\, is a safe\, cost-effective\, and socially equitable intervention that has been critical to reducing the prevalence of dental caries\, or tooth decay\, especially for our nation’s children. Despite the strong body of evidence\, fluoridation\, like many public health programs\, is being opposed by a highly motivated and organized grassroots movement. \nUsing fluoridation as an example\, this webinar explored how funders can address these real challenges to our nation’s public health institutions and build support for their continued existence and expansion. \nRelated Content\n\nJacob Presentation – Microsoft PowerPoint presentation\, 6042 KB\nDannen Grace Presentation – Microsoft PowerPoint presentation\, 776 KB\nMitchell Presentation – Microsoft PowerPoint presentation\, 2664 KB\nHayes Presentation – Microsoft PowerPoint presentation\, 419 KB

SUMMARY:Innovative Approaches to Wellness for Veterans and their Families
DESCRIPTION:GIH Integrative Health Funders Network \nWho: \n\nKevin Berry\, Vice President\, Samueli Institute\nCatharine Grimes\, Director\, Corporate Philanthropy\, Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation\nBob Roth\, Vice President\, David Lynch Foundation\n\nWhat: \nThe health considerations of military personnel\, veterans\, and their families can be quite different than those of civilians. For example\, they may have additional or different nutritional needs\, as well as exposure to rare chemicals and diseases. They are also at increased risk for substance abuse\, traumatic brain and bodily injuries\, and behavioral health concerns due to the psychological toll of combat. \nOn this webinar\, participants learned more about innovation approaches to health and wellness for military members\, veterans\, and their families; why this issue is important; and why foundations are investing in it. \nKevin Berry of the Samueli Institute discussed research on integrative approaches to military and veteran care. Bob Roth of the David Lynch Foundation described the foundation’s Operation Warrior Wellness program. Catharine Grimes of the Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation explored how foundations that do not traditionally fund complementary and alternative medicine might add some of these innovative programs to their funding portfolios. \nRESOURCES: \nOvercoming the Stresses of War With Meditation

SUMMARY:Aligning Our National Narratives During an Election Year and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsors: Economic Opportunity Funders; Grantmakers for Children\, Youth & Families; and Grantmakers In Health \nWho: \n\nRichard Kirsch\, Senior Fellow at the Roosevelt Institute\, Senior Adviser to USAction and USAction Education Fund\, and Progressive Economic Narrative Group\nJared Bernstein\, Senior Fellow\, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities\nMeg Bostrom\, Founder\, Public Knowledge & Topos Partnership\nPatrick Bresette\, Director of Programs\, Public Works\nFrank Clemente\, Campaign Director\, Americans for Tax Fairness\nMelissa Boteach\, Director\, Poverty and Prosperity Program for Center for American Progress and Director\, Half in Ten for Center for American Progress Action Fund\nKatie Paris\, Senior Vice President\, Media Matters\n\nWhat: \nThere is a tremendous amount of communications and outreach work going on to support state policy and advocacy networks actively working to engage in and inform the ongoing national debates over debt\, deficit reduction and budget and tax decisions. Federal and state governments continue to face critical decisions to cut crucial public services and raise revenues which will have profound and lasting consequences for all Americans\, especially low-income families and children. This will inevitably be a component of national and state election conversations and be addressed by Congress and state legislatures in early 2013. \nSeveral key communications partners have developed larger national narratives around the economy and role of government to support messaging across issues and positively influence federal and state policy and practice to build a healthy public sector\, and create positive\, long-term outcomes for families and communities. These narratives\, our current fiscal debates and election-year messaging are all coming to a head in the next few months. In response\, the Communications Collaborative held a webinar to share the alignment of larger narratives around government and the economy and to provide state policy and advocacy networks access to the information and tools available to support their work.
