SUMMARY:Beyond Grantmaking: How Aligned Funder Action Can Get Results
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by Grantmakers In Health (GIH)\, Lead Funders Action Network (LFAN)\,and Health & Environmental Funders Network (HEFN)  \nJoin the Lead Funders Action Network (LFAN)\, a Health and Environmental Funders Network (HEFN) funder collaborative\, for an enlightening webinar that traces the evolution of our collaborative investments into a robust federal policy campaign. Initiated in 2017 with support from the JPB\, Joyce\, and Robert Wood Johnson Foundations\, LFAN has been strategically navigating the complex landscape of childhood lead poisoning prevention\, which impacts over 500\,000 children in the U.S. \nThis webinar will explore how LFAN’s sustained efforts over several years have shaped a comprehensive approach to eliminating lead exposure through innovative financing and community-led policy initiatives\, with a focus on the development and impact of pivotal projects that have informed our current National Lead Safe Home Fund Advocacy Campaign. Notably\, the JPB Foundation-funded study on Lead Remediation Financing Scan\, and the NY Community Trust-funded Lead Strategies Legal Partnership provided critical insights that guided the establishment of significant local funds\, including the $3.5 million Buffalo & Erie County Landlord Property Improvement Fund and the $100+ million Lead Safe Home Fund in Cleveland. These funds represent successful models of how local policy changes and community activism can catalyze substantial investment in lead-safe housing. \nAttendees will gain insights from funders and activists involved in creating these proof-of-concept funds and learn how LFAN is leveraging these experiences to propose a National Mezzanine-Level Intermediary Fund. This fund\, with its aim to support Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs)\, Community Development Organizations (CDOs)\, and Community and Economic Development Entities (CEDEs) across the country\, aligns grant-based lead remediation efforts with scalable community development finance. Join us to discuss the transformative potential of aligning health equity\, social justice\, and housing policy. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:One Year Later: Medicaid Enrollment After the End of the Public Health Emergency
DESCRIPTION:During the COVID-19 pandemic\, restrictions were lifted that allowed Medicaid recipients to have continuous enrollment in the program\, providing free or low-cost health coverage to millions of Americans at a critical time. After the public health emergency ended in May 2023\, states began a massive redetermination process to renew or terminate coverage for individuals no longer eligible\, also known as “Medicaid unwinding.”  \nParticipants joined this webinar to hear about the status of Medicaid enrollment one year after the public health emergency ended. Speakers Anne Marie Costello\, Deputy Director\, and Jessica Stephens\, Senior Policy Advisor\, from the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services\, shared their perspectives on the current landscape\, successes and challenges\, what can be expected in the coming year\, and where support is still needed.  \nRecording:

SUMMARY:NCOA Age + Action 2024
DESCRIPTION:On May 7\, 2024\, Grantmakers In Health (GIH) and Grantmakers In Aging (GIA) cohosted a funders-only meeting at the National Council on Aging’s Age + Action 2024 conference. The session\, “Driving Change through Public-Private Collaboration\,” focused on bridging connections between the public and private sectors to improve the health and well-being of older adults in the U.S. \nCara V. James\, President and CEO of Grantmakers In Health\, and Lindsay Goldman\, CEO of Grantmakers In Aging\, provided opening remarks and introduced colleagues from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Administration for Community Living (ACL). Kari Benson\, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Aging at ACL\, and Kelly Cronin\, Deputy Administrator\, Innovation and Partnership at ACL outlined the agency’s current priorities and explored opportunities for collaboration with philanthropy. \nParticipants discussed a wide range of important issues affecting older adults based on community feedback\, including affordable housing\, the direct care workforce\, social isolation\, the need for a more coordinated strategy to address the social determinants of health\, and creating a better infrastructure for older adults to access services. The importance of supporting age-friendly communities\, health systems\, and public health was heavily discussed as a solution to many of these challenges that both ACL and philanthropy need to continue supporting. Supporting community care hubs was another strategy that participants felt was an opportunity ripe for public-private partnership. If implemented strategically in key geographies\, these hubs could effectively help connect older adults to needed resources\, specialized health care\, nutritious foods\, and other social supports and care services. \nThe session concluded with a commitment to continuing the dialogue between ACL and philanthropy as well as similar dialogues at the state level.

SUMMARY:Harm Reduction in Housing Justice: Values\, Policy\, and Services
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Funders Together to End Homelessness  \nHarm reduction means what it sounds like: reducing the harmful consequences of risky behaviors like substance use. Harm reduction is characterized by a fundamental commitment to preserving human lives and includes a wide variety of interventions\, such as syringe exchange or naloxone access. In the homelessness sector\, harm reduction also refers to non-punitive\, housing-first policies. Shelters may be considered a harm reduction measure because they mitigate the deadliness of unsheltered homelessness. However\, shelters are “just” harm reduction\, as they fail to address the conditions that lead to homelessness.  \nAddressing these underlying conditions and recognizing the racialized nature of these inequities is the mission of the housing justice movement and Funders Together’s north star. Does that mean that harm reduction efforts are incompatible with housing justice?  This facilitated discussion explored how harm reduction measures—both shelters and drug-specific policies—fit within the broader values of housing justice and provided practical guidance for funders working at the intersection of health and housing.  Speakers included Melissa Moore of the Drug Policy Alliance and Tanagra M. Melgarejo Pulido of the National Harm Reduction Coalition.   \nRecording: \n \n

SUMMARY:Food and Nutrition Policy in Indian Country 
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Native Americans in Philanthropy  \nThere is a rapidly growing movement across Native American communities working to improve access to nutritious and culturally appropriate food and support food sovereignty. From policy to practice\, philanthropy can play a vital role in partnering with Tribal communities and organizations to create food systems that lead to a brighter future through better health\, economic growth\, and reconnection to traditional foodways. Participants learned about the federal and state policy landscape at that time\, opportunities and challenges facing advocates\, and community-based strategies that were making a difference in communities across Indian Country. Speakers included Marian Bitsui of Native American Food Sovereignty Alliance and Whitney Sawney of Native American Agriculture Fund.  \nPowerPoint Presentation: \nFood and Nutrition Policy in Indian Country \nResources: \nReimagining Native Food Economies  \nReimagining Hunger Responses in Times of Crisis \nRecording:

SUMMARY:Advocacy for the Older Americans Act Reauthorization: What Can My 501c 3 Foundation Do?
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by Grantmakers In Health (GIH) and Grantmakers In Aging (GIA)  \nPolicy advocacy is critical to effecting systems change. Although foundations may engage in a wide variety of effective strategies\, many remain uncertain about what advocacy activities are legally permissible. The unfortunate result is many grantmaking organizations remain on the policy sidelines.  \nThe Older Americans Act (OAA) reauthorization is an opportunity for funders to help bolster critical services that address the social drivers of health and support common priority issues affecting all of us as we age\, including mental health and well-being\, social connection\, and the care workforce. As a reminder\, GIA and GIH are partnering on a new effort to mobilize funders in support of the 2024 reauthorization of the OAA.    \nThis discussion was useful for funders participating in the National Council on Aging’s Age + Action Conference on May 6-8\, 2024\, including Hill Day and special funder policy sessions. Information had been shared on GIA/GIH programming during the conference. The information provided in this webinar also applied to other policy issues.   \nParticipants convened for a workshop that provided a clear understanding of what advocacy activities your 501(c)(3) organization can engage in\, what communications count as lobbying\, and how to maximize your non-lobbying advocacy.   \n Participants Learned: \n\n How federal tax law permits lobbying for charities and how lobbying is defined;   \nOne easy step most charities can take to maximize the amount they’re allowed to spend on lobbying;   \nYearly lobbying limits for charities;   \nTips for taking advantage of the narrow definitions of lobbying—which will help charities make the most of their lobbying limit  \nHow to apply these rules to ballot measure activities.   \n\nThis workshop was facilitated by Sarah Efthymiou of the Alliance for Justice’s Bolder Advocacy program.  \nWebinar Resources: \n\nPhilanthropy Advocacy Playbook\nInvesting in Change: A Funder’s Guide to Supporting Advocacy\nLobbying Defined for Private Foundations\nSupporting the Social Welfare: Giving to 501(c)(4) Organizations\nBolder Advocacy Free Technical Assistance Hotline\n\nRecording:   \n \n

SUMMARY:State-based Advocacy for the Public’s Health
DESCRIPTION:For decades\, experts have been ringing alarm bells about the fragile state of America’s public health infrastructure and inadequate advocacy to support ongoing public health issues. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated these issues\, further eroding the trust in public health institutions and challenging their authority. To investigate the current state of public health advocacy\, The Network for Public Health Law conducted a 50-state scan to determine the robustness of public health advocacy at the state level.    \nParticipants joined this informal discussion to learn about the state of public health advocacy\, what funders are currently doing to bolster public health advocacy\, and what they can do. McClain Bryant Macklin\, Vice President of Policy and Impact at Health Forward Foundation\, moderated the webinar. Speakers included Maddy Frey\, a Public Health Evaluation Consultant for Frey Evaluation; Martha Katz\, Vice-chair of the board for Georgia Health Foundation; Cindy Zeldin\, Vice President of Health Policy and Government Affairs for Georgia Health Initiative\, and Ellen Quigley\, Vice President & Chief Grantmaking Officer for the Richard M. Fairbanks Foundation.  \nResources: \n\nFighting for the Public’s Health: Taking Action to Build Public Health Advocacy PowerPoint Presentation\nThe State of State-level Public Health Advocacy: Findings and Implications from a 50-state Scan\nBecoming Better Messengers from The Network for Public Health Law\n\nRecording:

SUMMARY:Funding Like You Want to Win: Philanthropy & Movement Investments
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Grantmakers Concerned with Immigrants and Refugees\, Asian Americans/Pacific Islanders in Philanthropy\, Catalyst\, Funders Together to End Homelessness\, Northern California Grantmakers\, Philanthropy New York\, Southern California Grantmakers\, and Hispanics in Philanthropy.  \nEvery historical movement\, from civil rights to marriage equality\, has required sustained effort over time\, including developing campaign frameworks\, deploying organizers\, conducting research and message testing\, and navigating legislative and judicial systems. Philanthropy is uniquely positioned to underwrite these capacities and ensure that movements have the resources needed to weather the mobilization of a well-funded opposition. Entrenched\, complex societal problems like homelessness\, economic inequality\, xenophobia\, and racism will not be solved overnight. The adage “fund us like you want us to win” is one that funders should take to heart as they pursue agendas to improve community well-being. In this conversation\, we heard from leaders at the forefront of efforts to build a more inclusive\, healthier\, safer\, and more prosperous multi-racial democracy\, as well as learn from foundations that have embraced movement-centered strategies.  Speakers included Jenn Ching of the North Star Fund\, Tram Nguyen of the New Virginia Majority\, Margarita Luna of The California Endowment\, and Roksana Mun of Grassroots Asians Rising. \nRecources: \n\nGCIR Slides Presented\n\nWebinar Recording:

SUMMARY:Firearm Violence Prevention Learning Community: Evidence-based Prevention Strategies

SUMMARY:The Role Community Health Workers Can Play to Improve Maternal Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by Funders for Maternal Mental Health \nMillions of pregnant and parenting women suffer from mental health conditions during pregnancy and after giving birth. In fact\, maternal mental health conditions impact 1 in 5 expectant and postpartum mothers\, making it the number one pregnancy-related complication in the United States. Women of color and those living in poverty are at the greatest risk of maternal mental health challenges. Community health workers\, who are known by many titles\, including peer support workers\, community navigators and promotoras\, have been shown to be effective in expanding access to health and mental health services for pregnant and parenting women. \nThis webinar explored the issues states\, community health workers and the field must navigate to integrate community health workers into Medicaid and other public financing mechanisms and ensure adequate payment models\, provider quality standards and workforce development strategies. Panelists explored state financing strategies of community health workers; dive deep into implementation successes and challenges of the community health worker programs in California and Connecticut; and shed light on actions philanthropy can take to expand community health worker services and promote their integration within the health care system. \nSpeakers included Elinor Higgins\, Policy Associate\, National Academy for State Health Policy; Mayra Alvarez\, Executive Director\, The Children’s Partnership; Pamela Riley\, Chief Health Equity Officer and Assistant Director of Quality and Population Health Management\, CA Department of Health Care Services; and Rachel Rusnak\, Program Manager\, Connecticut Office of Health Strategy. \nRecording: \nhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1jVdCXc6qW98eVXmxgKET_9MQjEbsefQO/view

SUMMARY:Funder Briefing and Conversation: USDA Summer Meals 2024
DESCRIPTION:More than 30 million children participate in school meal programs during the school year. However\, when schools are closed\, children lose access to these healthy meals and are at higher risk of food and nutrition insecurity. As a result\, for many children\, summer is the hungriest time of the year. Fortunately\, due to new bi-partisan legislation\, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has two new powerful tools—non-congregate summer feeding in certain rural areas and Summer EBT—to ensure every child gets the nourishment they need when school is out of session. Leaders from the field convened for a special funder briefing with opening remarks from Cindy Long\, Administrator of Food and Nutrition Service\, USDA\, to learn more about these new programs and to discuss how philanthropy can play a pivotal role in partnering with USDA to reduce childhood hunger during the summer months. Additional speakers included Alberto González\, Jr.\, Senior Advisor for External Engagement\, Food and Nutrition Service\, USDA. \nResources: \n\nBilingual videos in support of SEBT from USDA Secretary Vilsack and Deputy Secretary Xochitl Torres Small:\n\nUSDA Secretary Vilsack – Summer EBT (English) – Share on X (Twitter)\nUSDA Deputy Secretary Xochitl Torres Small (English) – Share on X (Twitter)\nUSDA Deputy Secretary Xochitl Torres Small (Spanish) – Share on X (Twitter)\n\n\n\n\nEstimated Number of Summer EBT Eligible Children Who Currently Do and Do Not Receive SNAP or NAP\n(includes the # of eligible SEBT participants in each State and Territory)\nLetter to Philanthropic Leaders\nStates and Tribes Partner with USDA to Kick Off New Summer EBT Program\n(Announcement highlighting States\, Territories\, and Tribal Nations that have submitted their Notice of Intent (NOI) to implement SEBT in 2024)\nSummer EBT Outreach Toolkit\nSummer EBT Playbook\n(New resource developed by Code for America and No Kid Hungry in close consultation with USDA to assist State Agency Partners with SEBT implementation)\nSummer EBT Questions & Answers\nSummer Nutrition Programs Website\nUSDA Food and Nutrition Service homepage\nUSDA New Summer Grocery Benefit Program For Families\n\n\n\n\nRecording: \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:2023 Fall Forum
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Overview Agenda FAQs Print Agenda \nThe 2023 Grantmakers In Health (GIH) Fall Forum provided policy-engaged funders with information on current issues\, access to leading thinkers\, and connections with grantmaking peers. This year’s theme was Feeding Hearts and Minds: Food as Medicine\, Divided Media\, and Implications for Public Policy.   Drawing on GIH’s new policy agenda and recognizing that policy not only occurs in Congress but in federal agencies and at state and local levels\, we addressed timely policy topics\, including: the Medicaid unwinding\, Medicare Advantage\, the Farm Bill reauthorization\, and Food as Medicine. We also discussed how our current information ecosystem—which is characterized by the simultaneous rise of social media and the decline of local media—is eroding trust in health institutions and public health officials and inhibiting our nation’s ability to address critical health needs and eliminate disparities.   Throughout the conference\, we highlighted opportunities for philanthropic action\, public-private partnerships\, and policy change to promote better health for all through more equitable health systems and a healthier information ecosystem. Over 150 participants joined us for the chance to discuss these important topics\, network with policy makers and other funders\, and identify opportunities for collaboration.

SUMMARY:Building Public Support for a Robust and Equitable Care Infrastructure: Lessons from the Care Economy Narrative Change Landscape Snapshot
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Asset Funders Network\, Disability & Philanthropy Forum\, Early Childhood Funders Collaborative\, Economic Opportunity Funders\, and Grantmakers In Aging \nAt some point\, every one of us will need care or need to provide care. The care economy — historically undervalued and underfunded — is an intersectional and intergenerational issue encompassing childcare and early learning\, paid leave\, long-term services and supports for older adults and people with disabilities\, and support for paid care workers\, including higher wages\, benefits\, and workplace rights and protections. \nCOVID-19 allowed us to witness the extraordinary contributions of caregivers and exposed the failings of our nation’s care policies\, especially for communities of color. Important work is happening across the country to shape the national dialogue and change the way we think about care. Now is the time to transform public thinking and build support for a robust and equitable care infrastructure. \nLeaders in the field launched a new report supported by the Care for All with Respect and Equity (CARE) Fund and developed by Asset Funders Network\, Disability & Philanthropy Forum\, Early Childhood Funders Collaborative\, Economic Opportunity Funders\, Grantmakers In Aging\, and Grantmakers In Health on the care economy narrative change landscape in the U.S. Coming together for the first time across issues and constituencies represented by this diverse range of PSOs. Participants discussed the evolving landscape of narrative change efforts across the care economy\, lessons being learned by practitioners and funders\, and potential opportunities for further learning and action. \nSpeakers Included: \n\nAnna Shireen Wadia\, Executive Director\, Care for All with Respect and Equity (CARE) Fund\nCema Siegel\, Co-Director\, Economic Opportunity Funders\nChristi Baker\, Director of Strategic Initiatives\, Asset Funders Network\nEmily Hinsey\, Director of Programs\, Grantmakers In Aging\nJulie Kashen\, Director of Women’s Economic Justice and Senior Fellow\, The Century Foundation/Principal\, Kashen Consulting\nPadmini Parthasarathy\, ​Principal & Founder\, Sāmya Strategies\n\nWebinar Slides: Lessons from the Care Economy Narrative Change Landscape \nRecording: \n \n

SUMMARY:Roundtable Discussion for Funders with Less Than $30 Million in Assets
DESCRIPTION:Foundations with limited assets face unique challenges as they seek to maximize their impact in the communities they serve\, such as investing in narrative change to advance social justice and health equity at the local level. Narratives—the themes\, ideas\, and patterns permeating the stories we hear and tell—play a powerful role in shaping public discourse\, debate\, and attitudes. Participants joined this informal networking session to talk with their peers about effective ways to advance narrative change without costly media-based investments. (Please note the $30 million asset threshold is not intended as a rigid eligibility cut-off. If you feel you would benefit from joining this conversation\, please register).

SUMMARY:Bias in the Health Care System: Part One
DESCRIPTION:Racial and ethnic inequities in health care can emerge from both conscious and unconscious biases of health care providers\, in addition to other structural and systemic factors. Efforts to address biases through diversity\, equity\, and inclusion training have sometimes been controversial\, with lawsuits aiming to eliminate such training programs from health professions graduate education. The issues have greater salience in the wake of the Supreme Court decision that ruled race-conscious admissions policies unconstitutional. In this webinar\, panelists discussed the state of research on provider biases\, potential intervention strategies to increase awareness of biases in clinical encounters\, and areas where more research is needed to advance equity in health care. Participants learned about the steps needed to advance research\, as well as the kinds of outcomes that can be desired and expected from training initiatives. Panelists included noted researchers Lisa Cooper of John Hopkins University School of Medicine\, John Dovidio of Yale University Institute for Social and Policy Studies\, and Nao Hagiwara of Virginia Commonwealth University\, moderated by Brian Smedley of the Urban Institute.   \nGIH will convene a follow-up discussion after this webinar on October 25 at 2:00 p.m. ET.  \nResources: \n\nTo What Extent Are Parents and Children Exposed to Bias and Unfair Treatment in Health Care?\nPublicly Insured and Uninsured Patients Are More Likely Than Other Patients to Be Treated Unfairly in Health Care Settings Because of Their Coverage Type\nUnfair Treatment or Judgment Due to Race and Ethnicity Is as Likely to Come from Health Care Providers as Front Office Staff\nMost Adults Who Feel Treated or Judged Unfairly by Health Care Providers Report Adverse Consequences\nBlack and African American Adults’ Perspectives on Discrimination and Unfair Judgment in Health Care\nPerceptions of Unfair Treatment or Judgment Due to Race or Ethnicity in Five Settings\nPerceptions of Discrimination and Unfair Judgment While Seeking Health Care: Findings from the September 11-28 Coronavirus Tracking Survey\nUnequal Health: Anti-Black Racism and the Threat to America’s Health\n\nThe Associations of Clinicians’ Implicit Attitudes About Race With Medical Visit Communication and Patient Ratings of Interpersonal Care \n\n\nImplicit bias in healthcare professionals: a systematic review \n\n\nWhy Are Health Disparities Everyone’s Problem? \n\n\nRecording:
