SUMMARY:Putting Your Money Where Your Mouth Is: The Case for Funding Oral Health Programming
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with the Funders Oral Health Policy Group (FOHPG) \nAlthough oral health is a barometer of overall health and crucial for total well-being nearly 74 million Americans do not have access to oral health care. Barriers to oral health care are driven by a diverse range of issues\, including the oral health delivery system structure\, dental provider shortages in underserved areas\, lack of comprehensive Medicaid and Medicare dental benefits for low-income populations\, and the historical separation of oral health care from traditional primary care. \nGrantmakers In Health (GIH) and Funders Oral Health Policy Group (FOHPG) held a one-day meeting in Memphis\, Tennessee about philanthropy’s role in addressing oral health equity. This interactive meeting placed oral health in the larger context of health equity\, and focused on identifying holistic\, community-centered strategies to address oral health disparities\, and created locally representative workforces to improve care for affected populations. Funders left equipped with a framework to fund oral health programming or support oral health efforts in their primary areas of influence. \nSupport for this meeting was provided by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation \n\nFinal Agenda\nRelated Content\n\nOral Health Strategy Session Presentation Slideshow – PDF document\, 8976 KB\nTennessee State Oral Health Plan Executive Summary 2017 – PDF document\, 102 KB\nFOHPG Leading Change In Oral Health Policy and Systems Slideshow – PDF document\, 1252 KB

SUMMARY:Blueprint for Complex Care: Opportunities for Philanthropy in Healthcare and Social Services
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Grantmakers In Aging \nWhen individuals with complex health and social needs encounter the health care system\, they often receive care from both medical and social service providers that is expensive\, inefficient\, and poorly coordinated. Six foundations (The Commonwealth Fund\, The John A. Hartford Foundation\, Peterson Center on Healthcare\, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation\, The SCAN Foundation\, and Milbank Memorial Fund) are working together to address this issue and improve the quality and value of care by increasing the adoption of evidence-based interventions that improve quality and lower costs of care for those with the greatest needs. \nThe recently released Blueprint for Complex Care provides the field with clear\, actionable steps for further developing a wide range of efforts aimed at improving the lives of people with complex health and social needs and advancing the field of complex care. This webinar shared the blueprint’s recommendations for strengthening the field\, how foundations are using the blueprint in their current and future grantmaking\, and how funders can collaborate to improve the lives of those with the most complex needs. Speakers included Mark Humowiecki of National Center for Complex Health and Social Needs\, Susan Mende of Robert Wood Johnson Foundation\, and Kelly Pfeifer of California Health Care Foundation. \nWebinar Recording:

SUMMARY:Building Evidence with a Health Equity Lens
DESCRIPTION:Foundations are deeply invested in measuring the impacts of their grantmaking and supporting evidence-based practices to improve health. An increasing number of foundations are also committed to moving upstream and advancing health equity in every area of their foundation’s work. How can funders combine these goals and bring a health equity lens to collecting evidence and conducting evaluation? This webinar shared promising practices for using data to inform health equity strategies\, meaningfully engaging communities in evaluation and research\, and designing metrics to assess progress toward health equity. Speakers included Gabriela Alcalde of Richmond Memorial Health Foundation\, Brandon Coffee-Borden of Community Science\, Vivian Tseng of the William T. Grant Foundation\, and Samantha Tucker of Healthcare Georgia Foundation. \nWebinar Recording: \n \nAdditional Resources: \n\nWebinar Slides: Building Evidence with a Health Equity Lens Webinar Slideshow – PDF document\, 2341 KB

SUMMARY:Policies for Those Who Care: Investing in Systems That Support Family Caregivers
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Grantmakers In Aging \nAcross the country\, more than 35 million family members are providing care for older adults with chronic\, disabling health conditions. While many organizations are working hard to provide services and supports\, federal\, state\, and local policies do not yet reflect the fact that family caregivers are an important part of the care system. \nDuring this meeting\, funders learned about the current state of family caregiving policy and efforts to create new and innovative policies across the country. Funders discussed collaborative policy opportunities—including public-private partnerships—for improving services and support for family caregivers and explored the role of philanthropy in supporting policy change\, as well as the strategies available to grantmakers of all shapes and sizes to make a difference at the local\, regional\, and state levels. \nSupport for this meeting was provided by Archstone Foundation \n\nMaterials \nFinal Agenda \nDignity Fund in San Francisco \nDignity Fund Coalition \nThe Caring Company \nFCA’s Policy Digest \nCHCS Blog Post \nGIH Issue Focus: Supporting Older Adults and Family Caregiving by Colin Pekruhn \nStrengthening Medicaid Long-Term Services and Supports in an Evolving Policy Environment \nRelated Content\n\nFamily Caregiving Meeting Slideshow – PDF document\, 7945 KB

SUMMARY:LIVESTREAM RECORDING: Count Us In! Roles for Health Funders in Ensuring a Fair and Accurate Census
DESCRIPTION:This recording of the webcast from the first day of the 2018 GIH Fall Forum reviews upcoming census activities and shares practical strategies for philanthropic involvement. The decennial census has profound implications for the health and vitality of communities across the country. Results determine the allocation of public sector resources in programs like Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)\, dictate reapportionment of political representation at the federal and state levels\, and inform a host of private sector planning and investment decisions. Certain “hard to count” populations\, such as young children\, communities of color\, low-income households\, and people living in rural communities\, are particularly at risk for being under counted. As discussions\, decisions\, and debates regarding the census accelerate\, health funders are exploring whether and how they should support census efforts. \nRelated Content\n\nCount Us In!

SUMMARY:2018 GIH Fall Forum
DESCRIPTION:2018 Agenda \nWashington Marriott Georgetown | Washington\, DC \nEach fall\, GIH hosts the Fall Forum\, designed for funders with a strong interest in health policy. The meeting is an excellent opportunity for grantmakers to get up-to-speed on current issues\, interact with leading thinkers\, and connect with one another. Funders return home with a deeper understanding of important topics\, an introduction to some key players\, and ideas about how to apply what they’ve learned to their work. \nThe first day of this year’s Fall Forum\, November 14\, allowed staff and trustees of foundations and corporate giving programs to learn more about upcoming census activities and share practical strategies for philanthropic involvement to ensure a fair and accurate 2020 census. The second day of the meeting\, November 15\, explored how funders can apply the latest thinking on racial and gender equity\, toxic stress\, and resiliency to evidence-based approaches to youth violence prevention. In addition\, Rev. Starsky D. Wilson\, President and CEO of the Deaconess Foundation\, delivered the sixth annual Lauren LeRoy Health Policy Lecture. The final day of the Fall Forum\, November 16\, provided a thorough and thoughtful analysis of the prior week’s elections and their implications for health care access\, coverage\, and costs across the country. \nCount Us In! Roles for Health Funders in Ensuring a Fair and Accurate Census\nWednesday\, November 14\n9:00 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. \n\nThe decennial census has profound implications for the health and vitality of communities across the country. Results determine allocation of public sector resources in programs like Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)\, dictate reapportionment of political representation at the federal and state levels\, and inform a host of private sector planning and investment decisions. Certain “hard to count” populations\, such as young children\, communities of color\, low-income households\, and people living in rural communities\, are particularly at risk for being undercounted. As discussions\, decisions\, and debates regarding the census accelerate\, health funders have begun to explore whether and how they should support census efforts. The first day of the Fall Forum allowed the staff and trustees of foundations and corporate giving programs to learn more about upcoming census activities and share practical strategies for philanthropic involvement. \nHope and Healing: A Public Health Approach to Youth Violence Prevention\nThursday\, November 15\n9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Meeting\n4:00 – 5:00 p.m. Reception \n\nViolence has a devastating impact on young people\, whether they are victims\, witnesses\, or perpetrators. In recent years\, efforts to curb youth violence have used a public health approach that addresses structural barriers that contribute to chronic violence\, and emphasizes community-level supports to strength youth and families. These efforts are increasingly informed by broader national conversations about policing\, trauma\, and gun violence. How do young people navigate these complex issues and define risk and safety? What are the restorative practices they need to heal from violence? How do we change the narrative about youth violence and rethink what it means to build healthy and safe communities? \nThe second day of the Fall Forum took an in-depth look at the underlying factors that drive youth violence and explore how funders can apply the latest thinking on racial and gender equity\, toxic stress\, and resiliency to evidence-based approaches to youth violence prevention. With an eye toward systems change\, participants discussed efforts to implement fair and effective school-based policies and programs\, meet the health and social service needs of youth at highest risk for violence victimization and perpetration\, and transform juvenile justice systems to improve youth outcomes. \nAll Eyes on the States: A Post-Election Analysis\nFriday\, November 16\n9:00 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. \n  \nIn this time of fast-paced change and competing priorities\, funders need a timely and relevant breakdown of the current health policy situation. The third day of the Fall Forum will provide a thorough and thoughtful analysis of the prior week’s elections and their implications for health care access\, coverage\, and costs across the country. What are the challenges and opportunities on the horizon and the potential consequences for families\, nonprofits\, state budgets\, and federal health care programs? Are there proven mechanisms for getting accurate\, actionable information into the hands of state administrators and legislators that aids their decisionmaking processes? How can philanthropy best encourage civil discourse on health policy matters\, finding places of agreement and advancing shared goals? This meeting included candid\, practical\, nonpartisan discussions that resulted in tools funders could use in their own communities. \n\nHOTEL INFORMATION \nWashington Marriott Georgetown\n1221 22nd Street NW\nWashington\, DC 20037\nPhone: 202.872.1500 \n\nREGISTRATION \n\n\n\n\n	RateEarly-bird (March 17 – April 17)Standard (April 18 – June 5)Onsite (After June 5)\n\n\n\n\n	GIH Funding Partners*$1\,299$1\,499$1\,649\n\n\n	Non-Funding Partners*$1\,799$1\,999$2\,149\n\n\n	Nonprofits$1\,399$1\,599$1\,749\n\n\n	Post-Conference$99$149$149\n\n\n\n\nPlease note that GIH meetings and conferences are only open to staff and trustees of foundations\, corporate giving programs\, and philanthropy-serving organizations.

SUMMARY:Advancing Health Equity with Harm Reduction Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by Funders Concerned About AIDS \nPhilanthropy plays a critical role in elevating and supporting strategies to eliminate health disparities and advance health equity. Harm reduction encompasses a wide range of pragmatic public health strategies designed to reduce negative physical\, emotional\, and social consequences. Harm reduction is not a new approach; its practices\, programs\, and policies have been utilized across the health care delivery system to address acute and chronic health conditions for decades. On this webinar\, funders learned how harm reduction approaches are being effectively implemented in community health centers and other settings\, with a particular focus on services supporting homeless individuals and women with behavioral health conditions. Speakers included Barbara DiPietro of the National Health Care for the Homeless Council\, Mishka Terplan of Virginia Commonwealth University’s Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology\, and Kimá Joy Taylor of Anka Consulting LLC. \nRelated Content\n\nAdvancing Health Equity with Harm Reduction Strategies Presentation – PDF document\, 3549 KB

SUMMARY:What Funders Need to Know About "Public Charge": An Analysis of the Published Rule
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Grantmakers Concerned with Immigrants and Refugees \nThe recently proposed “public charge” rule would allow federal officials to consider immigrants’ use of Medicaid\, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program\, the Medicare Part D Low-Income Subsidy Program\, and several housing programs in determining whether to deny entry into the United States or make adjustments to legal permanent resident status. The proposed changes would likely lead to decreased enrollment in public programs among legal immigrant families and their primarily U.S.-born children\, undermining philanthropic efforts to reduce poverty\, improve health and well-being\, and expand opportunities for low-income children and families. Listeners learned more about the proposed rule and discussed ways that funders can take action. Speakers included Olivia Golden of the Center for Law and Social Policy and Marielena Hincapié of the National Immigration Law Center.

SUMMARY:Expanding Family-Friendly Workplace Policies
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by the Early Childhood Funders Collaborative \nFamily-friendly workplace policies are a key support for the health and well-being of children and their parents\, but the United States has long lagged behind other countries in policies such as family and medical leave and paid sick days. There are signs\, however\, that the tide may be turning\, with a national bipartisan movement addressing paid leave and recent gains at the state and local levels. This webinar discussed the emerging policy consensus and current efforts to make comprehensive paid leave a reality across the country. Speakers included Myra Jones-Taylor of ZERO TO THREE\, Brigid Schulte of New America\, and Maisha Simmons of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. \nRelated Content\n\nExpanding Family-Friendly Workplace Policies Slideshow – PDF document\, 5141 KB
