MCH Housing Champion Forum | Part 2

Wednesday, December 18th, 2024 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Laying the Bricks: Implementing, Evaluating, and Communicating about MCH Programs with a Housing Emphasis.

Who?

Anyone who is interested in identifying opportunities for their jurisdiction’s Title V MCH program to be more engaged in housing justice efforts, a.k.a. “housing champions.”

What?

Learn tools and be exposed to resources you (and your colleagues) can use to incorporate housing as a priority in MCH policies and programs, and to encourage prioritization of MCH populations in broader housing efforts.

When/Where?

This two-part series will be offered via Zoom in November and December.

Why?

The federal Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) recently added a new National Performance Measure (NPM) that aims to track and reduce housing instability among women with a recent live birth and children ages 0 through 11. Recognizing that this work may be new to some in Title V, AMCHP wants to support you to identify your existing strengths and resources, determine what a possible role in the housing space might look like for your specific context, as well as design concrete next steps to work towards positively impacting this NPM.
