Community-driven solutions often prove their impact through pilots. Far fewer make the leap into national policy and public budgets. How does that shift happen? This interactive session explores how movements can translate emergent innovation into government adoption and sustained domestic financing. Drawing on lessons from the professional community health worker movement and cross-sector efforts in education, health, and democracy, participants will surface proven strategies for turning grassroots organizing into policy adoption and public investment. Come ready to share what has worked in your context and leave with tactics to identify winnable moments, unlock funding, and build political will across sectors. This session has been curated in partnership with Community Health Impact Coalition (CHIC).
