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. Research shows health care leaders, providers, and health plans are paying more attention to patients’ social needs, but they have conflicting ways of approaching this opportunity.

Register now for a webinar on Wednesday, August 28, for a lively discussion with experts from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (the nation's largest philanthropy dedicated solely to health), Northeastern University, Health Share of Oregon, and Vinfen (Massachusetts) about guiding principles and practical tips applicable to all grantmakers in the public health and social services space.

During this webinar, you’ll learn:

• Challenges that limit collaboration between health care and social services and how to overcome them
• 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
