What We do

Community Engagement

The Community Health Equity Convening Series is a Children’s Health Fund partnership with Sanofi US that gathers local stakeholders from a variety of sectors to identify localized social determinants of health and collaboratively strategize solutions. The convenings position patients, families, and youth as key stakeholders among healthcare professionals, policymakers and social service organizations to drive community-based change. To date, CHF has completed four convenings in collaboration with three national network partners and one new collaborator.
