SUMMARY:2011 Annual Meeting on Health Philanthropy
DESCRIPTION:Agenda \nLos Angeles\, California \nThe 2011 Grantmakers In Health (GIH) Annual Meeting on Health Philanthropy Creating a Healthier Future for Our Kids\, Families\, and Communities challenged grantmakers to envision a healthier future for children\, families\, and communities by working on many fronts: creating communities that support healthy choices\, promoting healthy behaviors; improving access to physical and behavioral health services; building a safe\, equitable\, and value-based system of care; and turning knowledge into practice. Health and well-being are shaped by complex and interrelated forces. Knowing this\, how can we ensure our communities are healthy places to live? And how do we work collectively to reach this goal? Today\, it is more important than ever for grantmakers to take action\, create change\, and achieve better health for all. \n\nMEETING REGISTRATION\nRegister by February 4 to avoid late fees. \nRegistration fees are $675 for GIH Funding Partners and $1\,150 for non-Funding Partners. \n\nHOTEL INFORMATION \nJ.W.

A member of the Board of Directors of Partnership for a Healthier America\, the nonprofit guiding and supporting First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move Initiative\, Dr. Yancey is committed to fighting the threat posed by childhood obesity to the health of our children and of our nation. Her book Instant Recess presents a new paradigm for fitness and public health that promises vitality\, well-being\, and a greater sense of community. \nMeeting the Challenges for a Healthier Future in Tough Economic Times\, Thursday\, March 3\, 8:30 a.m.\nThis is a time filled with incredible opportunities and unprecedented challenges. Implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) places intense demands on both federal and state government at a time of shrinking budgets and continued economic hardship. And\, with all its promise\, we know the ACA alone will not lead to health improvement across our communities and nation. Diana S. Dooley\, secretary of the California Health and Human Services Agency\, will reflect on the leadership challenge\, which tests both public officials and health funders\, of balancing the demands of bringing the ACA to life while furthering efforts to strengthen prevention and population health. \nThe Promise of Urban Young People\, Friday\, March 4\, 9:30 a.m.\nRobert Lewis\, Jr.\, the newly appointed vice president for program at The Boston Foundation\, is a seasoned civic\, community\, and nonprofit leader who has been described as an “outstanding agent for change on behalf of young people.” A product of Boston’s public housing projects\, he has directed the city’s largest youth and human service agency and numerous community organizations. He coaches a wildly popular baseball league that has served thousands of teens and spends a lot of time in the city’s neighborhoods with young people. \nMr. Lewis has been widely honored for his commitment to Boston and to the youth of the city. Of his role as a philanthropist\, Mr. Lewis has said\, “We can’t just be good at this work. We have to be great at it. We dare to use the word ‘impact’ because at the end of the day\, our grantmaking and civic leadership should build bridges\, change lives\, and change communities. Impact is our legacy.
