RECORDING | SLIDES
Collaboration and partnerships are the cornerstone of effective public health practice. Although the Collective Impact Framework includes essential elements of successful collaboration, it is a different paradigm.  Collective Impact is a powerful approach to cross-sector collaboration that is achieving measurable effects on major social issues. During this session, Jennifer Splansky Juster, Executive Director with the Collective Impact Forum, will provide an overview of the Collective Impact Framework (CIF), sharing the why, the what, and how it is different from partnerships/collaboratives. She will share the Collective Impact readiness assessment tool and other resources for those interested in getting started.  Public health representatives will share how they have implemented the CIF while centering equity at the state and community level, followed by interactive group discussion on the key elements of CIF, its application, challenges and opportunities.

Rising rates of food and nutrition insecurity across the United States, exacerbated by two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, are impacting many communities. Please join Social Innovation and Universal Opportunity Lab as they discuss the root and systemic causes of food and nutrition security, and explore the process of using community engagement as a path forward in building resilience especially in communities most impacted. They will share guidance on community engagement strategies and SOUL LAB’s Streetwyze platform that can be used to document community member experience.
