SUMMARY:Creating an Integrated Child Health System Using a Population Health Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Population health is a phrase that is becoming widely used among public health officials\, health care providers\, researchers\, policymakers\, and grantmakers. At its core is a focus on building sustainable linkages among health care systems\, public health agencies\, and the larger community to prevent the onset of chronic disease and improve health outcomes. \nDuring this meeting of grantmakers and other stakeholders\, we applied a population health framework to children’s health and addressed the question: What would an integrated child health system look like? We focused on innovative practices and policies and catalytic roles that grantmakers can play. \nThis meeting was made possible with support from Nemours. \nRelated Content\n\nArea Hotels – PDF document\, 252 KB\nAchieving Healthy Communities through Community Centered Health Systems (Fukuzawa) – PDF document\, 59 KB\nCommunity Pediatrics Policy Statement 2013 (Gorski and Kuo) – PDF document\, 673 KB\nIntegrator Role and Functions in Population Health Improvement Initiatives (Chang) – PDF document\, 223 KB\nPopulation Health in the Affordable Care Act Era (Stoto) – PDF document\, 317 KB\nCommunity Health Needs Assessments (Stoto) – PDF document\, 120 KB\nCreating an Integrated Child Health System Using a Population Health Perspective Agenda – PDF document\, 119 KB\nCommunity-Centered Health Homes\, Prevention Institute\, 2011 – PDF document\, 297 KB\nCommunity Health Centers Leveraging Social Determinants of Health\, Institute for Alternative Futures – PDF document\, 2986 KB\nClinical Integration_Haushalter – PDF document\, 1324 KB\nBest Babies Zone_Fehrenbach – PDF document\, 1383 KB\nCommunity Pediatrics_Gorski – PDF document\, 611 KB\nKresge_Fukuzawa – PDF document\, 1292 KB\nPopulation Health_Role of the CDC_Graffunder – PDF document\, 2685 KB\nTransforming Child Health System_Halfon – PDF document\, 3910 KB\nWhat Is Population Health_Stoto – PDF document\, 1342 KB

SUMMARY:Collective Impact: A High Performing Approach to Change
DESCRIPTION:Grantmakers around the country are embracing collective impact as a rigorous approach to bringing together a group of actors from different sectors to commit to a common agenda for solving a specific social problem. While collective impact can lead to meaningful results at scale\, it requires new mindset shifts and a long term commitment from all participating partners. The collective impact approach is particularly relevant in the health sector\, with new reforms underway and continuing complexity in the health space. \nThis webinar presented the collective impact model\, and explored the role of funders in creating and sustaining the collective process. Participants heard from health grantmakers implementing a collective impact initiative to reduce infant mortality by mobilizing\, facilitating\, coordinating\, and increasing engagement of multi-sector partners. Speakers included: John Kania and Jennifer Splansky Juster of FSG\, and Kathleen Holmes and Melissa Logsdon of Missouri Foundation for Health. \nRelated Content\n\nCollective Impact: A High Performing Approach to Change – PDF document\, 1156 KB

SUMMARY:Using Technological Innovation to Promote Community Wellness: A Strategy for Equity
DESCRIPTION:When: \nTuesday\, March 18 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern \nWho: \n\nGillian Barclay\, Aetna Foundation\nAlyse Sabina\, Aetna Foundation\nAndrea Parker\, Northeastern University\nGraham Colditz\, Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine\n\nWhat: \nDigital health is an increasingly popular strategy that uses a variety of rapidly evolving technologies and platforms to improve individual and population health outcomes\, increase health knowledge\, and empower decision making. These tools can be a “great equalizer” that grants everyone access to critical knowledge and engages them in action to improve their own health and that of the community. As the great equalizer\, technology and digital health can be important contributors to systems change efforts to increase racial and ethnic health equity and to reduce health care disparities. This webinar explored the opportunities for health funders to support digital health innovation as a strategic approach that enhances community wellness and promotes racial and ethnic health equity. \nRelated Content\n\nUsing Technological Innovation to Promote Community Wellness: A Strategy for Equity – PDF document\, 3021 KB

SUMMARY:2014 GIH Annual Meeting
DESCRIPTION:2014 Agenda at a Glance Agenda Book \nAtlanta\, Georgia \nThe Power of Voice\nFoundations and corporate giving programs wield enormous influence. At their best\, they use this influence to search for next generation ideas; test new models and bring them to scale; and take advantage of philanthropy’s staying power to strengthen community resiliency\, build new fields of work\, and focus on issues over time. \nWith this great influence\, however\, comes a great responsibility: to take an active role in securing positive change. When\, where\, and how should philanthropy use the power of its voice? When\, where\, and how should it lift up the voice of others? These questions inspired lively discussion within the field. \nThe 2014 GIH annual meeting The Power of Voice\, held March 5-7\, reflected on the power of voice in all of its manifestations. \n\n2014 Annual Meeting Registration Form\n2014 Annual Meeting Brochure

SUMMARY:Why the Affordable Care Act Matters to Diverse Older People
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by Grantmakers in Aging\, The California Wellness Foundation\, The Diverse Elders Coalition\, and The John A. Hartford Foundation \nWhen: \nWednesday\, November 6 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern/1:00 p.m. Central/Noon Mountain/ 11:00 a.m. Pacific \nWho: \n\nYanira Cruz\, President and CEO\, National Hispanic Council on Aging; and\nMichael Adams\, Executive Director\, Services and Advocacy for GLBT Elders (SAGE)\n\nWhat: \nThe health coverage expansions under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will affect you\, your loved ones and your communities. The Diverse Elders Coalition represents millions of diverse older people age 50+ who are among those affected by the these expansions. They include the Health Insurance Marketplace\, the Medicaid expansion\, new benefits for elders 65+ on Medicare\, and a range of protections that make health care more accessible for lesbian\, gay\, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) older people and older people of color. The number of uninsured older adults age 50-64 continues to rise—from 3.7 million in 2000 to 8.9 million in 2010. In addition\, people of color make up more than half of uninsured people in the U.S.— and research shows that people of color\, across the age span\, face significant disparities in physical and mental health. Additionally\, many people of color delay care because of potential medical costs and out of fear of discrimination or cultural incompetence from medical providers.These issues are especially true for LGBT people of color who face challenges on multiple aspects of their identities. The ACA has the ability to create a path to better health by offering more affordable health insurance options\, improving services and eliminating the usual obstacles. This webinar highlighted both national and state-specific examples on what is being done to ensure that older people know about the changes that are taking place under the ACA and how it affects them.
