23 KHF Strategic Focus Areas The Kansas Health Foundation envisions a culture in which every Kansan can make healthy choices where they live, work, and play. Reduce health disparities related to social and economic factors (health equity) Social Determinants of Health Engage Kansans to improve the health of our state (civic health) Actionable Data Prevention Media and Journalism Access to Care Leadership and Capacity Building We accomplish our vision through grantmaking, policy advocacy, and strategic communication.

24 HCI: Health Equity Purpose Support leadership teams in Kansas cities, towns, counties or regions to engage in advocacy efforts that will improve the health of Kansans experiencing poor health outcomes. Create a network of community health advocates willing to learn and discover how to effectively impact the health of Kansans using a health equity lens.

25 Goals for Communities Convene cross-sectorial community leadership teams to facilitate planning and implement strategies to address community health inequities. Intentionally and authentically engage populations experiencing health inequities to develop a plan to improve the health of the population impacted and increase the capacity and influence of the targeted populations to improve their health outcomes. Engage in a broad range of advocacy strategies intended to address health equity issues.

26 HCI: Health Equity Structure Grantees will spend Year One (July 1, 2017 May 1, 2018) identifying the health inequity in their community they would like to address and work in partnership with the population directly affected by that issue in developing solutions. As a result of this planning, participating HCI leadership teams will submit an Action Plan by May 1, 2018 that will include: Increased understanding of local health inequities leading to the identification of the issue chosen; Strategies on how the leadership team will continue to authentically engage the affected communities post-planning year; and Strategies on how the leadership team will support the affected communities to engage civically and to identify policy, systems and environmental interventions to address health inequity.

27 Technical Assistance Providers Wichita State University Community Engagement Institute (CEI) will provide facilitation, coaching, leadership development and project management for the initiative Public Health Law Center (PHLC) will provide policy expertise to communities on new and emerging public health priorities Innovation Network (IN) will evaluate the initiative

34 WorkWell KS Goal To create healthier worksites in Kansas through worksite implementation of policies, systems, and environmental best practices to sustainably promote: 1) integration of worksite wellness into the worksite's infrastructure 2) physical activity 3) access to and consumption of healthy foods and beverages 4) tobacco prevention and cessation 5) well-being

35 Intent of Initiative So the healthy behavior is easy

36 The Problem?

37 Manifestations vs. Causes of Disease We need to know the causes of disease. (Katz, 2011) Top 3 1. Tobacco 2. Poor nutrition 3. Physical inactivity (Bauer, Briss, Goodman, & Bowman, 2014; Mokdad, Marks, Stroup, Gerberding, 2004; McGinnis, Foege, 1993)

38 3 Risk Factors 3 Four 80 (tobacco use, poor diet, physical inactivity) Contribute to Four chronic diseases (heart disease, type 2 diabetes, lung disease, some cancers) Which, in turn, contribute to approximately 80% of all deaths in the United States (KDHE, 2012; KFF, 2016)

39 WorkWell KS Philosophy Change the culture of worksites. Begin with the employer, not the employee. Not good and bad. Not right and wrong. What are our goals, what does the literature suggest is effective?

52 Equality vs. Equity vs. Disparity Inequities are created when barriers prevent individuals and communities from accessing these conditions and reaching their full potential. Inequities differ from health disparities, which are differences in health status between people related to social or demographic factors such as race, gender, income or geographic region. Health disparities are one way we can measure our progress toward achieving health equity. -American Public Health Association Our Mission: To protect and improve the health and environment of all Kansans.
