Aligning Health Care and Social Services: Insights for Grantmakers Webinar

This webinar highlights guiding principles and practical tips applicable to all grantmakers in the public health and social services space. The discussion with experts from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Northeastern University, Health Share of Oregon, and Vinfen (Massachusetts) covers:

• Challenges that limit collaboration between health care and social services
• How to adapt grant strategies to better align philanthropic efforts
• Short and long-term funding approaches that can improve social determinants of health
• Research findings on how the social services sector is changing and what that means for health care

As health foundations and corporate giving programs fund strategies exploring social determinants of health and equity, grantmakers may consider approaches that fund across sectors to create a culture of health.
