SUMMARY:Chronic Absenteeism: What Are We Missing?
DESCRIPTION:Chronic student absenteeism is an important and often overlooked health issue facing schools and communities. Illness and poor health outcomes are leading factors driving chronic absenteeism\, and students that are chronically absent from school suffer significant academic loses that can negatively impact lifelong health. This webinar explained why chronic absenteeism is of interest to health funders\, how philanthropy and federal agencies are tackling the issue\, and how foundations and corporate giving programs can become involved in driving solutions. Speakers included: Hedy Chang of Attendance Works\, Susan Dawson of E3 Alliance\, Joaquin Tamayo of the U.S. Department of Education\, and Madge Vasquez of St. David’s Foundation. \nRelated Content\n\nChronic Absenteeism Webinar Slides – PDF document\, 3107 KB

SUMMARY:Going for the Win-Win: Exploring Approaches to Climate\, Health\, and Equity Co-Benefit Investments
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with the Health & Environmental Funders Network and Climate and Energy Funders Group \nAs recognition grows that climate change is a major health threat\, so too is recognition that climate action could have significant benefits for public health and overburdened communities (beyond reducing climate impacts). For example\, developing clean energy in low-income housing or expanding active transport (walking or cycling) and public transit may provide economic and health benefits to low-income people while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. There is growing interest in “co-benefit” investments for their potential for high payoff: addressing several urgent societal needs at once\, engaging more partners and assets\, and accelerating solution strategies. \nCo-benefits grantmaking also presents challenges. Funders may encounter unfamiliar issues and partners with different priorities. They face choices about which and whose benefits\, costs\, and risks\, with partial data and unknowns. And co-benefits work is very much an innovation space. People are experimenting with metrics and methodologies\, ways of aligning diverse funding interests\, and processes to engage affected communities\, health\, and other key stakeholders. Getting better at co-benefits work is an important step towards bigger impact. \nThis webinar explored ways of thinking about climate\, health\, and equity co-benefit approaches. Speakers shared examples and experiences from co-benefits work\, reflecting on strengths\, limitations\, and lessons as groundwork for discussion. Speakers included: Jonathan Levy of Boston University School of Public Health\, Cecilia Martinez of the Center for Earth\, Energy and Democracy (CEED)\, Ben Russak of Liberty Hill Foundation\, and John Scicchitano of New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA).

SUMMARY:Connecting the Dots between Transportation and Health Equity
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored with The Funders’ Network for Smart Growth and Livable Communities \nAs funders look for new ways to build healthy\, livable\, and equitable communities\, there is growing recognition of transportation as an important social determinant of health. Transportation is linked to multiple health outcomes such as access to health care\, rates of injury\, and levels of physical activity. Transportation is also linked to other upstream factors that shape health including housing\, employment\, and education. This webinar explored how foundations\, local communities\, and other cross-sector partners are working together to address the intersections of health and transit. Speakers included: Katy Smith of the Piedmont Health Foundation and Diana Williams of The Funders Network for Smart Growth and Livable Communities. \nRelated Content\n\nPresentation: Connecting the Dots between Transportation and Health Equity – PDF document\, 5177 KB\nGreenlink Peer Comparison – 2014 – PDF document\, 738 KB\nThe Hardest Road: Philanthropic Approaches to the Evolving Field of Transportation Equity – PDF document\, 733 KB\nCreating Opportunities for People and Place Through Transit – PDF document\, 401 KB
