Leveraging Impact Investments to Address Affordable Housing

Foundations are well-positioned to leverage impact investments to address affordable housing shortages by deploying mission-aligned capital that finances the development, preservation, and expansion of affordable homes while generating financial returns that can be reinvested in future community needs. Colby Dailey of Multiplier Advisors will discuss how impact investments can generate both social impact and a financial return for foundations. Janisse Rosario Schoepp from the Health Foundation of South Florida and Sarah Lyman from Alliance Healthcare Foundation will discuss how their foundations are strategically deploying investments to increase access to affordable housing and opportunities for homeownership.

From National Data to Local Action: Improving Youth Mental Health

Improving youth mental health starts with strong data, but not just clinical measures. Understanding how young people are feeling means capturing what matters most to them: belonging, agency, support, and resilience.

Join this webinar to explore how Surgo Health’s nationally recognized Youth Mental Health Tracker is generating new, equity-focused insights into youth well-being and how Interact for Health −in partnership with the coalition Hopeful Empowered Youth (HEY!) and local funders −adapted that research to center local voices across the Cincinnati region.

Speakers will discuss how this collaboration is filling critical data gaps by going beyond traditional mental health indicators to measure holistic well-being across diverse populations, including Black, Hispanic, LGBTQ+, and economically disadvantaged youth. Attendees will hear directly from HEY! coalition youth leaders who were involved at every stage of the data process to ensure concepts, language, and priorities reflect real youth experiences. Hey! coalition leaders will also share how results will be used to shape mental health efforts in their community.

Supporting Community-Based Organizations in Social Health Care

Community-based organizations (CBOs) are increasingly recognized as essential partners in addressing the social drivers of health, including food access, housing stability, maternal health, and behavioral health. When Medicaid and Medicare provide coverage for social health services, CBOs may have new opportunities to participate in health care delivery systems. However, in order to be successful, these organizations may need additional support to navigate challenges related to credentialing, billing, compliance, and administrative capacity. This webinar will explore sustainable financing strategies for social health services, common challenges facing CBOs, and the ways in which the current policy environment will impact such Medicaid waivers. Speakers will discuss how philanthropy can help seed and strengthen the needed infrastructure through capacity building, technical assistance, and strategic investments.
