This webinar examines how sectors can improve shared data and information systems to foster long-lasting change and build healthier communities.

Aligning Systems for Health at the Georgia Health Policy Center, in collaboration with Data Across Sectors for Health, brought together a panel of data experts to discuss the practical implications of sharing data across health care, public health, and social services.

Speakers for the August 10 webinar included Antwi Akom, PhD (Streetwyze), Brittney G. Mosley, MS (Mississippi State Department of Health), Ernie Morganstern, MPA (Trenton Health Team) and moderator Ella Auchincloss (ReThink Health).

In this webinar, panelists provided insights on how to plan and implement shared systems, overcome barriers like trust and legal considerations, and apply learnings from aligning initiatives across the nation to your own efforts.

Aligning Systems for Health: Health Care + Public Health + Social Services, supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and managed by the Georgia Health Policy Center, is focused on learning from stakeholders across the nation about effective ways to align these three sectors to better meet people’s goals and needs.
