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.

Ballot Measures: Advancing Health Policy through Direct Democracy
The citizen-initiative process, also known as direct democracy, gives the people the power to directly propose and pass new laws or constitutional amendments (depending on the state) by putting them up for a vote at the statewide or local level. 25 U.S. states and the District of Columbia allow for citizen-initiated ballot measures, which have been used to advance a broad range of health policy goals, including reproductive rights, Medicaid expansion, gun safety reform, minimum wage increases, and paid leave. This webinar explored recent ballot initiative campaigns and highlight the roles of health funders in building community power through direct democracy. Speakers included Chris Melody Fields Figueredo of the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center, Becky Gould of Nebraska Appleseed, and Ashley Dietz of the Florida Philanthropic Network.
