Medicaid’s Role in Preventing & Ending Homelessness

While it was never the pathway to ensuring health care as a human right unto itself, Medicaid inarguably saves lives. Millions would be homeless if not for the services Medicaid supports, and those who experience homelessness rely on it to survive. But the federal government has drastically threatened Medicaid’s power. Join this webinar for a timely discussion on how Medicaid prevents and helps to end homelessness, the status of federal funding for Medicaid, state-level opportunities for organizing, and what philanthropy can do to mitigate the harms of defunding this crucial component of the social safety net. Speakers include Michelle Schneidermann of the California Health Care Foundation and Bobby Watts of the National Health Care for the Homeless Council.

1 in 4 Project Strategy Work Group September 2025 Session

This webinar is hosted by Grantmakers Concerned with Immigrants and Refugees

Join us for a strategic conversation on how funders can respond to the Budget Reconciliation Act of 2025 and its impacts on immigrant children and their families. The law’s profound harms are far-reaching; among other things, they include extensive cuts to health care, nutrition assistance, and other public benefits; skyrocketing immigration fees; decreased protections for unaccompanied minors; and increased funding for immigration enforcement.

We will examine emerging movement and field responses to these cuts and explore opportunities for aligned strategy and coordinated action. In addition to hearing from speakers on this issue, we will also hold space for work group members to share the challenges you are facing and strategies you are employing to support immigrant children and their families.
