罗伯特·伍德·约翰逊基金会领导力项目启动
The first group of more than 150 leaders hails from across the nation—from Compton, Calif., to New York, N.Y., representing a diverse range of fields from architecture to transportation to community organizing, and more. Many participants said the opportunity to work with those outside their field and to have an influence beyond their workplace drew them to the program.
" data-isabstract="false" class="cmp-text">“These programs are all about cross-sector collaboration, about disrupting how we define and how we build a comprehensive Culture of Health,” said Risa Lavizzo-Mourey, RWJF president and CEO. “This group of leaders embodies the diversity, tenacity, and inspiration it will take to make good health a reality for all.”
新泽西州普林斯顿大学-罗伯特·伍德·约翰逊基金会(RWJF)已经从多个领域和专业中挑选了150多名参与者加入四个新的领导力项目旨在帮助在美国建立健康文化。目的?通过培养强有力的领导者,为持续存在的卫生挑战提供创新解决方案,使所有人的良好健康更加公平。
第一批150多名领导人来自全国各地——从加利福尼亚州的康普顿到纽约州的纽约,代表了从建筑到交通到社区组织等各个领域。许多参与者表示,有机会与专业以外的人一起工作,并在工作场所之外产生影响,这吸引了他们参加这个项目。
RWJF总裁兼首席执行官Risa Lavizzo-Mourey说:“这些项目都是关于跨部门合作,关于颠覆我们如何定义和建立一个全面的健康文化。“这群领导人体现了实现人人享有良好健康所需的多样性、坚韧性和灵感。”
Culture of Health Leaders reaches beyond the traditional realm of health and health care to engage nearly 40 people from any field or profession who want to create a healthier society. The first class represents fields as diverse as architecture, education, urban farming, the arts, and many others, and reaches across private, public, and nonprofit sectors. These leaders will collaborate to address persistent health problems that have eluded those working within a single sector, seeking solutions that can emerge from the wisdom of their own communities. As individuals, they will have an opportunity to step back from their day-to-day work, find new inspiration and advance both their individual leadership skills and their commitment to social change. The program is co-led by the National Collaborative for Health Equity and CommonHealth ACTION.
Health Policy Research Scholars brings together 40 diverse first- and second-year doctoral students from multiple disciplines, including transportation, neuroscience, and environmental health. The program was created intentionally for people who—by race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status and other factors—are traditionally underrepresented in doctoral programs and policy development or from disadvantaged backgrounds. Many participants are immigrants, survivors of trauma, or first-generation college students. The intent is to diversify the next generations of leaders and ensure that policies and solutions are inclusive and relevant to the communities they serve. The program is led by Johns Hopkins University.
Interdisciplinary Research Leaders includes 15 teams, each with two researchers and one community leader. Together they will bridge the myriad factors that have an enormous influence on people’s health, e.g., education, neighborhoods, transportation, income, faith. Their work will address health disparities and build fundamentally healthier communities. This year’s teams will work on projects that advance one of two themes: early childhood and health; or housing, community development, and health. The program is led by the University of Minnesota.
The 2017 application period will open in January. The full list of participants is available at www.ottomotal.com/changeleaders.
Background
These programs represent a new four-year, multimillion dollar investment by RWJF, and one that continues a long legacy of supporting the development and diversity of leaders. Initially focused on health and health care, the programs have expanded in the past year, in recognition that building a Culture of Health requires the attention and contributions of a wide range of individuals in every field. Five additional leadership programs, grounded in health and health care but also increasingly focused on collaboration across sectors and disciplines, are continuing as well: Harold Amos Medical Faculty Development Program, New Connections, RWJF Health Policy Fellows, Summer Health Professions Education Program, and State Health Leadership Initiative.

" data-isabstract="false" class="cmp-text">参与者——许多在跨学科团队中工作——正在解决卫生和公平方面最紧迫的问题,如住房、食品系统和跨性别健康。他们正在开展以社区为基础的项目,如针头交换、低收入社区的口腔保健以及大规模监禁对儿童健康的影响。许多领导人正在处理特别及时和紧迫的问题,包括密歇根州弗林特市的水危机。以及路易斯安那州巴吞鲁日的社区卫生。
这些领导者还将接受专业的指导、指导、网络以及由顶尖学术和社会变革领袖领导的高级领导力发展课程,以培养跨部门工作和影响社区所需的技能。
通过吸引许多申请的竞争程序选出的参与者将获得一笔津贴,以支持他们的参与。有些人有资格获得额外的资金来支持一个大胆的社区项目。他们将继续在他们的家乡社区全职工作或学习,并在他们的职业生涯中应用他们的新知识和领导能力。
这些项目包括:
临床学者聘请30名临床活跃的医疗保健提供者与来自广泛学科的临床医生合作,包括护理,听力学,药学和社会工作。这些小组将处理其社区中的复杂问题,从他们作为保健提供者和社区成员的角度处理构成健康基础的社会因素。该项目由北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校领导。
健康领袖文化超越了传统的健康和保健领域,吸引了来自任何领域或职业的近40人,他们想要创造一个更健康的社会。第一类代表了建筑、教育、城市农业、艺术和许多其他领域,涉及私人、公共和非营利部门。这些领导人将合作解决那些在单一部门工作的人无法解决的长期存在的卫生问题,寻求可以从他们自己社区的智慧中产生的解决办法。作为个人,他们将有机会从日常工作中退后一步,寻找新的灵感,提高他们的个人领导技能和对社会变革的承诺。该项目由国家卫生公平合作组织和共同卫生行动共同领导。
卫生政策研究学者汇集了来自多个学科的40名不同的一年级和二年级博士生,包括交通,神经科学和环境健康。该项目是专门为那些由于种族、民族、社会经济地位和其他因素而在博士项目和政策制定中传统上代表性不足或来自弱势背景的人创建的。许多参与者是移民、创伤幸存者或第一代大学生。其目的是使下一代领导人多样化,并确保政策和解决方案具有包容性,并与他们所服务的社区相关。该项目由约翰霍普金斯大学领导。
跨学科研究带头人包括15个小组,每个小组有两名研究人员和一名社区领导。它们将共同弥合对人们健康产生巨大影响的无数因素,例如教育、社区、交通、收入、信仰。他们的工作将解决健康差距问题,从根本上建立更健康的社区。今年的小组将致力于推进以下两个主题之一的项目:幼儿和健康;或者住房、社区发展和健康。该项目由明尼苏达大学领导。
2017年的申请期将于明年1月开始。完整的参与者名单可在www.ottomotal.com/changeleaders。
背景
这些项目是RWJF一项为期四年、耗资数百万美元的新投资,也是支持领导者发展和多元化的长期传统的延续。最初的重点是健康和卫生保健,在过去的一年里,这些项目得到了扩展,认识到建立健康文化需要各个领域广泛的个人的关注和贡献。另外五个以健康和医疗保健为基础,但也越来越注重跨部门和学科合作的领导力项目也在继续:哈罗德·阿莫斯医学院发展计划,新连接,RWJF卫生政策研究员,夏季卫生专业教育计划,和国家卫生领导倡议。
