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.

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

SUMMARY:Erasing Representation: The Implications of the Census Citizenship Status Question on Reapportionment and Redistricting
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Associated Grant Makers\, Bauman Foundation\, Economic Opportunity Funders\, Environmental Grantmakers Association\, Forefront\, Funders’ Committee for Civic Participation\, Funders Together to End Homelessness\, Grantmakers Concerned with Immigrants and Refugees\, Grantmakers Council of Rhode Island\, Hispanics in Philanthropy\, National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy\, Philanthropy Network Greater Philadelphia\, Philanthropy New York\, Sustainable Agriculture & Food Systems Funders\, and United Philanthropy Forum \nThe Census Bureau has proposed the addition of a Citizenship Status Question to the 2020 Census and indicated that data will be included in the transfer of census counts to states for the purposes of redistricting. Two state legislatures have already considered bills to require that state legislative reapportionment and redistricting be based on citizen totals rather than full population totals. Additional states may follow suit. Drawing local\, state\, and congressional districts using citizen-only data or voting age data could deprive communities of effective representation and of the economic benefits that often comes with that representation. This discussion explored: \n\nhow census data is used in congressional\, state\, and local redistricting\, and the impact of the U.S. Supreme Court case Evenwel v. Abbott;\nhow efforts to draw out non-citizens or non-voters could affect the democratic process; and\nwhat needs to be done to ensure communities are represented.

SUMMARY:Improving Health Outcomes by Connecting to the EITC: A Conversation for Funders
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with EITC Funders Network \nThe Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) aims to reduce poverty and support working families by offsetting their federal payroll and income taxes. A small but growing body of research is exploring the relationship between higher income resulting from the tax credit benefits and improved health outcomes. This research has generally focused on maternal and child health outcomes because the vast majority of EITC benefits accrue to families with young children. On this webinbar\, funders learned about the importance of EITC in improving health\, explored examples of how philanthropy is engaging in this work\, and increased cross-sectoral connections between health and economic security funders. Speakers included Kelli Komro of Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University\, Padmini Parthasarathy of The California Wellness Foundation\, and Ria Pugeda of the Consumer Health Foundation. \nRelated Content\n\nImproving Health Outcomes Slides – PDF document\, 1851 KB

SUMMARY:Philanthropy’s Response to the Addition of a Citizenship Question to the 2020 Census
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Funders’ Committee for Civic Participation\, Associated Grant Makers\, Bauman Foundation\, Chesapeake Bay Funders\, Democracy Funders Collaborative Census Subgroup\, Forefront\, Funders for LGBTQ Issues\, Grantmakers Concerned with Immigrants and Refugees\, Grantmakers Council of Rhode Island\, Hispanics in Philanthropy\, Minnesota Council of Foundations\, Philanthropy Network Greater Philadelphia\, Philanthropy New York\, Philanthropy Northwest\, Sustainable Agriculture & Food Systems Funders\, and United Philanthropy Forum \nOn June 8\, the Commerce Department (which oversees the Census Bureau) invited the public to comment on the paperwork associated with the 2020 census. The public then had 60 days–until August 7–to submit comments. This was one of the few opportunities for philanthropy to respond to the proposed addition of a citizenship question the census questionnaire. Regardless of the outcome\, these public comments will establish an important record for the public\, Congress\, and the courts to consider. During this webinar\, funders learned about: \n\nwhere the proposed citizenship question stands now and how key national stakeholder organizations are organizing to respond to it\,\nhow funders and Philanthropy Serving Organizations can sign-on to letters regarding the citizenship question and submit their own comments\, and\nhow funders can help inform their grantees about sign-on comment letters and other organizing opportunities for stakeholder groups.\n\nSpeakers included Gary Bass of the Bauman Foundation\, Maggie Osborn of United Philanthropy Forum\, and Corrine Yu of the Leadership Conference Education Fund.

SUMMARY:2018 GIH Annual Conference on Health Philanthropy
DESCRIPTION:Agenda at a Glance \nThank you for attending the 2018 Annual Conference on Health Philanthropy\, the largest gathering of health funders in the country! Event details including session materials are available on the GIH App and app website. \n\nCONFERENCE THEME\nNavigating Currents of Change\nHow does your foundation or corporate giving program deal with change? Do you advance purposefully\, adapting your theory of change as needed? Are you doing the same things you’ve always done and hoped you won’t run aground? Or—worst of all—are you adrift? \nIn this time of dynamic social change\, every health funder must face staying relevant and effective. Like a choppy sea\, the challenges come from multiple directions: demographic shifts that affect community dynamics; increasing levels of social inequality; rapidly changing public policies; a health care system in transition; and new change management tools and techniques—to name just a few. \nThe good news is that from small communities to the national arena\, funders are developing successful strategies to stay abreast of change. The 2018 annual conference is a time to share these strategies\, identify best practices\, and discuss new priorities. Together\, funders can find ways to move forward with conviction\, providing the leadership that communities urgently need. \nReflections\nEach year\, GIH asks health funders to share their thoughts on our annual conference theme. This year\, we’ve asked evaluators from foundations to reflect on Navigating Currents of Change.

SUMMARY:Complex Care: Funding Big Problems on a Small Budget
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Grantmakers In Aging \nThere is growing recognition that our current health care system often fails people with the most complex health and social needs.

This webinar taught strategies for funding improvement and innovation in complex care on a smaller budget. The discussion included an overview of The Blueprint for Complex Care (a joint project of the National Center for Complex Health and Social Needs\, the Center for Health Care Strategies\, and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement); case studies on how and why to support patient advocacy\, data analytics\, clinical models of care\, cross-sector communication\, unconventional partnerships\, and workforce development; examples of evidence-based programs that are ready for replication and scaling; and advice on designing sustainable business models and implementation plans.

SUMMARY:When Hospitals Deliver More Than Health Care
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Grantmakers In Aging \nProMedica\, a nonprofit health system serving 27 counties in northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan\, has a strategic focus on addressing the drivers of health for patients and communities by concentrating on the social determinants.

In October 2017\, ProMedica announced a $50 million investment focused on neighborhood revitalization. Recently\, the health system partnered with LISC\, a community development financial institution\, to create a $25 million loan pool to support projects in distressed communities. They also cofounded the Root Cause Coalition\, with the AARP Foundation\, to reverse and end systemic health inequities. \nThis webinar was a conversation with Randy Oostra\, President and CEO of ProMedica\, about how health systems translate understanding about the social determinants of health into action. \nWebinar Recording\nRelated Content \n\nWhen Hospitals Deliver More Than Health Care Slides – PDF document\, 5869 KB

SUMMARY:A Call to Action for the 2020 Census
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with Funders’ Committee for Civic Participation \nCensus Day\, April 1st\, 2020\, is only two years away. Funders discussed why the census matters and the role that philanthropy can play in ensuring a fair and accurate count.
