World Humanitarian Day is observed on August 19th and honors humanitarian aid workers worldwide. Established by the UN in 2009, it commemorates the anniversary of the bombing of the United Nations headquarters in Iraq, where 22 people, including the UN’s High Commissioner for Human Rights, lost their lives.

This day also shines a light on the hundreds of thousands of volunteers, professionals, and crisis-affected people who deliver urgent health care, shelter, food, protection, water, and much more.

Aligning California: Maximizing Opportunities to Advance Local Community-Led Networks

California is leading the nation in community health and systems change innovation. Recent local and state policy proposals prioritize funding to support data-sharing infrastructure, with an emphasis on technology-enabled person-centered care models. The Community Information Exchange (CIE) model can be used to design systems that meet the needs of Medicaid recipients and other vulnerable populations while prioritizing local community governance.

We’re bringing together CIE organizations and other stakeholders from across California to explore how we can leverage the CIE to achieve systems change and prepare for future funding opportunities that support community health.
