SUMMARY:The Mental Health Impact of Intimate Partner Violence
DESCRIPTION:GIH Mental Health Audioconference Series \nWhen: \nTuesday\, December 14\, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern / 1:00 p.m. Central / 12:00 p.m. Mountain / 11:00 a.m. Pacific \nWho: \n\nDr. Carole Warshaw and Dr. Terri Pease\, National Center on Domestic Violence\, Trauma\, and Mental Health\nCynthia P. Hayes\, Missouri Foundation for Health\n\nWhat: \nIn the United States\, one in every four women will experience intimate partner violence\, also known as domestic violence\, in her lifetime. Research has consistently demonstrated that domestic violence has adverse mental health consequences for both adult survivors and their children. It has also documented the high rates of abuse among women seen in mental health settings\, particularly women living with a psychiatric disability. Yet\, the systems to which survivors turn are frequently unprepared to address the range of issues they face in accessing safety\, recovering from trauma\, and restoring their lives. \nOn this webinar\, Carole Warshaw and Terri Pease of the National Center on Domestic Violence\, Trauma\, and Mental Health presented culturally relevant and trauma-informed strategies for responding to survivors who are experiencing the mental health effects of domestic violence and other lifetime trauma\, with a special emphasis on the role of grantmakers. In addition\, Cynthia Hayes shared insights drawn from her experience working with the Missouri Foundation for Health\, a funder in this area. \nRelated Content\n\nWarshaw and Pease PPT – PDF document\, 2425 KB

SUMMARY:How Early Influences Can Affect Later Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:GIH Mental Health Audioconference Series \nWhen: \nTuesday\, November 16\, 2010 at 12:00 p.m.\, Eastern/ 11:00 a.m. Central/ 10:00 a.m. Mountain/ 9:00 a.m. Pacific \nWho: \n\nMrs. Roxane Kaufmann\, Director\, Early Childhood Policy\, Georgetown University Center for Child and Human Development\nDr. Walter Gilliam\, Director\, The Edward Zigler Center in Child Development and Social Policy\, Yale Child Study Center\nDr. Meghan Guinnee\, Catalyst Research\n\nWhat: \nThe first three years of life are a period of incredible growth in all areas of a child’s development. Brain development and experiences during this period may set the course for many future behavior patterns. Outcomes can be observed through children’s behavior as they attempt to communicate their feelings of wellness\, abilities\, and/or difficulties that they are having in their home\, childcare\, preschool\, or other settings. \nMost occasional challenging behavior displayed by young children goes away without turning into more serious behavioral concerns. For some children\, however\, the behavior is more intense\, occurs more frequently\, and interferes with their ability to learn and form positive relationships with peers and significant adults. Persistent mental and behav¬ioral problems\, especially those beginning in early childhood\, can lead to a lifelong downward trajectory of antisocial behaviors. These difficulties can affect an individual’s social development\, educational attainment\, employment opportunities\, and risk of engaging in criminal activities. \nOn this call\, funders learned more about key issues related to mental health in early childhood. We also discussed innovative approaches geared toward fostering healthy social\, emotional\, and psychological development in young children to prevent preschool expulsions\, to help them succeed in school\, and to improve the systems of care available to serve them and their families. \nResources: \n\nCommunity Health Foundation of Western and Central New York\nThe Right Start Quality Improvement Collaborative\nThe Early Childhood Connections Pilot Program\n\nRelated Content\n\nECCP Policy Brief 2007 – PDF document\, 168 KB\nPre K Expulsion Brief 2008 – PDF document\, 2260 KB\nPre K Expulsion Brief 2005 – PDF document\, 219 KB\nRoxane Kauffman Presentation – PDF document\, 1079 KB

SUMMARY:Improving Women's Health from Communities to Care Settings
DESCRIPTION:In 2010\, the focus of the GIH Fall Forum was women’s health. Top speakers discussed the latest information\, from community factors that affect women’s health to access and coverage issues in health care settings. Participants heard about problems\, but also met with dynamic women designing solutions for their communities. The plenary session on the afternoon of November 9 served as an insider’s update on health reform\, followed by a reception for funders\, federal agency representatives\, and the broader health policy community. \nHealth is a window into women’s lives\, into the challenges they face as members of families and communities\, as caregivers\, and as health decisionmakers. \nImproving Women’s Health from Communities to Care Settings explored these challenges in depth to help funders understand how they affect women’s health and to stimulate thinking about the roles funders can play in improving outcomes. The meeting’s speakers\, all recognized leaders in their respective fields\, discussed women’s health from many perspectives. Their presentations informed participants about women’s health in relation to the life course\, health disparities\, the social determinants of health\, environmental exposures\, and health care access and coverage. We explored issues women face in getting access to\, and making decisions about\, health care\, including reproductive health care services\, and learn more about emerging disease trends. But\, it was not all about problems—each day\, panel discussions introduced participants to funders who are making a difference and to dynamic women who are developing and implementing solutions in their communities. \nThere were ample opportunities for talking with your peers during both days of the meeting\, including breakfast roundtables on November 10 where you can meet people and discuss topics of interest in greater depth. To continue the conversation\, GIH held a series of audioconferences in 2010–2011 on specific topics in women’s health. These discussions supplemented background material made available at the meeting. Look for more information about the series in the meeting portfolio. \nAround the world\, there is now enormous interest and investment in improving women’s health. This meeting served as part of that continuum. This meeting: provided the latest information about women’s health status and women’s health care; raised awareness about the broader factors that affect women’s health\, including the implications of health reform; and highlighted the work of foundations and organizations that are developing and implementing solutions.

SUMMARY:Fall Forum Plenary & Reception: On-the-Ground Washington Update on the Progress of Health Reform
DESCRIPTION:On-the-Ground Washington Update on the Progress of Health Reform \nDonald Berwick\, M.D.\, administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)\, was be the policy plenary keynoter at the 2010 Grantmakers In Health Fall Forum Improving Women’s Health from Communities to Care Settings and will share his thoughts on the progress of health care reform. For health foundations\, the law is the culmination of decades of work\, but it is just the opening act for the substantial work that lies ahead. Implementation of this sweeping and ambitious law is taking place amidst a dynamic environment of allies and opposition. Ensuring that it lives up to its promise requires involvement from a wide range of public and private players. \nAs head of CMS\, Dr. Berwick is a central player in health care reform implementation– his agency is responsible for overseeing a major expansion of Medicaid\, which under the new law would cover an additional 16 million people by the end of the decade. CMS is also charged with containing Medicare costs\, while at the same time improving and expanding certain benefits. \nAs implementation unfolds\, what will be the greatest challenges and important milestones? What can we expect in the coming year? What are strategic opportunities for philanthropy? Dr. Berwick will address these and other key points\, providing an insider’s view on health care reform’s priorities and processes. \nThe policy plenary session is just one highlight of this year’s Fall Forum. Improving Women’s Health from Communities to Care Settings will examine how women\, their health\, and the health-related decisions they make can play a critical role in shaping solutions that serve everyone.

SUMMARY:Advocacy for Impact - Guiding Grantees to Success
DESCRIPTION:GIH Public Policy Audioconference Series \nWhen: \n\nMonday\, November 1\, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern/1:00 p.m. Central/Noon Mountain/11:00 a.m. Pacific\n\nWho: \n\nKristen Grimm and Ed Walz\, Spitfire Strategies\nChristie McElhinney\, The Colorado Trust\nGara LaMarche\, The Atlantic Philanthropies\n\nWhat: \nThe election season and political shake-ups mean nonprofits will soon be seeking funding to support advocacy efforts. This interactive session explored approaches to determining which advocacy efforts complement a foundation’s theory of change\, guiding nonprofits in the development of plans for successful advocacy\, and assessing the soundness of an advocacy strategy presented in a proposal. \nKristin Grimm provided a strategic framework for planning and evaluating advocacy activities. She stressed the importance of identifying and articulating a theory of change which describes a pathway and interim milestones for achieving a particular goal. This theory of change provides a conceptual model which can be used to further identify requisite policy change objectives\, advocacy needs\, and promising grantmaking strategies. Ms. Grimm summarized a systematic approach to framing these strategic decisions through a series of questions designed to elicit thoughtful consideration of potential options\, opportunities\, and barriers. \nGara LaMarche and Christie McElhinney shared their perspectives on the framework and approach Ms. Grimm had described. Mr. LaMarche noted that advocacy for policy change is a core component of Atlantic Philanthropies’ approach to bringing about lasting changes in the lives of people who are disadvantaged by their economic situation\, race\, nationality\, gender\, age\, disabilities\, immigration status\, sexual orientation\, political affiliation or religion. He highlighted several examples of how Atlantic Philanthropies has utilized advocacy\, including how the Health Care for America NOW (HCAN) initiative raised the visibility of abusive practices within the health insurance industry during the national health care reform debate. Ms. McElhinney described how The Colorado Trust had only recently adopted advocacy as a strategic intervention and discussed the theory of change\, ten-year vision\, and strategic plan the organization developed to achieve the goal of universal access to high quality\, affordable health care for all Coloradans. \nEd Walz summarized five critical capacities needed for effective advocacy related to (1) policymaking\, (2) people\, (3) politics\, (4) plan\, and (5) power. Mr. Walz provided several examples to illustrate how these capacities influence advocacy effectiveness and how foundations can assess the capacity of potential grantees in each of these areas. \nMs. McElhinney and Mr. LaMarche discussed how their organizations have integrated capacity assessments into their advocacy strategies. Ms. McElhinney described the intensive evaluation methods The Colorado Trust has adopted and emphasized that evaluation design and results should inform the strategic direction of the foundation and individual grantees. Mr. LaMarche stressed the need for responsive approaches that can adapt to changing environmental and political realities and encouraged funders to develop their own internal policy and political intelligence. \nRelated Content\n\nAdvocacy For Impact Presentation – Microsoft PowerPoint presentation\, 6670 KB
