Episode 3: Board President Kristi Pier begins the conversation with Julia Caplan and Holly Nickel from the Public Health Institute where they focus on community resilience and wellbeing.

Questions asked:

1. Tell me about Health in All Policies. How does it support well-being in all communities? 2. I understand your Health in All Policies work has evolved over the years to focus more on racial equity. What can you tell us about that shift? In an ideal world, what would Health in All Policies look like? What is your vision of a community where health in all policies has been fully adopted? 3. Your program, State of Equity at the Public Health Institute, facilitates the Capitol Collaborative on Race & Equity (CCORE) that arose from your Health in All Policies work. What is the high-level overview of that work? How can or do states engage with CCORE to support cross-sector partnerships? 4. Tell us more about how PHI defines a healthy community? What is the significance of addressing racial equity in supporting resilience in community health? 5. How do the relationships developed through the CCORE training cohorts support community resilience? Are there ways this is being measured or tracked? 6. What are some lessons learned from implementing HiaP and CCORE in California? What recommendations or advice do you have for states and organizations who are just getting started?
