Improving Health and Reducing Homelessness through Cross-Sector Partnerships: Insights from California
Center for Health Care Strategies
Better care where it's needed most
California leads the nation in homelessness. To tackle this critical issue, county stakeholders across the state, including health care and homeless service organizations, are partnering to enhance the coordination of health and social care for people experiencing homelessness. These collaborative partnerships are facilitated in large part by CalAIM, California’s Medicaid transformation initiative.
Over the past two years, eight cross-sector teams in California piloted new strategies to improve the health and well-being of people experiencing homelessness through the Partnerships for Action: California Health Care & Homelessness Learning Collaborative, made possible by the California Health Care Foundation and led by the Center for Health Care Strategies (CHCS). This webinar will feature a panel of members from two Partnerships for Action pilot teams, joined by national experts. They will share key insights on cross-sector collaboration aimed at improving services for people who are unhoused, as well as practical strategies for sustaining effective partnerships.
Interested stakeholders from health care, social services, government, and other sectors in California and across the country are encouraged to join this 90-minute event cohosted by CHCS and the Better Care Playbook.
