Session Description:

Allina Hospitals and Clinics has a long history of providing community benefit activities that promote health in its communities and contribute to fulfilling its mission. Over the last two years, Allina has made several changes to its community benefit program in an effort to maximize its positive impact on community health. These changes have resulted in the development of a board-level Community Benefit Committee, the creation of local Community Advisory Councils, and the addition of employees to build capacity for and to better organize the community benefit program.

This session demonstrates the importance of program development as a means to achieving better outcomes. It provides participants with practical tools to assist in the development of their own community benefit program, and the opportunity to learn from Allina’s journey of program enhancement.

Objectives include:
  • Understanding how community benefit programs can be effectively integrated into the mission and vision of hospitals and health systems.
  • Identifying the relationships and resources needed to create, implement and sustain a community benefit program.
  • Learning from planning, evaluation and reporting models used to target the health needs of a community.
