While we’re on the topic of partnerships, I want to highlight how The Greenlining Institute and The California Endowment teamed up last year to begin the Greenlining Health Equity Fellowship Program (scroll to the bottom of the page). Through this unique collaboration, emerging health advocates are selected each year and placed to work at one of The California Endowment’s regional offices across the state. Fellows work on hands-on projects ranging from Affordable Care Act implementation to creating healthy school environments. Although placed in different parts of the state, the Health Equity Fellows come together regularly to receive workshops and trainings from the Academy’s leadership development curriculum. Now I get why the conference put an emphasis on partnerships. They can create innovative programs like the Health Equity Fellowship. And while it’s only in its first year, I can’t wait to see the fellowship program grow and develop an army of forward-thinking health advocates.
