Join Maryland Philanthropy Network's Health Funders Affinity Group for a sharing session to learn how your peers are approaching their giving for 2025 and spotlight your takeaways from 2024 thus far. Together, we’ll reconnect with a focus on addressing health disparities across Maryland. Receive an update on the funders’ collaboration around birth equity, neighborhood nursing pilot, and mental/behavioral health initiatives. During this sharing luncheon, members are invited to update colleagues on your funding priorities and develop deeper partnerships to provide collective impact.

Join Maryland Philanthropy Network’s Health Funders Affinity Group and presenters Shannon Hall, J.D., Executive Director of the Community Behavioral Health Association (CBH), and Brett Beckerson, MSW, Senior Director, Public Policy and Advocacy National Council of Mental Wellbeing, to share their efforts to bring high-quality, integrated mental health and substance use care to Maryland residents through Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHC). Learn about the complexities of an organization becoming a CCBHC and how philanthropy can assist them in the process.
