Tribal Care Coordination Dashboard Project: Coeur Adolescent Support Team (CAST) Referrals

This study tests the feasibility of a multi-sector tribally-operated data system and dashboard for documenting health and social service needs and service referrals among youth members of the Coeur d-Alene tribe. The integrated data system is designed to achieve data sovereignty and improve timeliness and coordination in the delivery of health and social services for the tribal youth population, thereby dismantling forms of structural racism and inequity created by reliance on fragmented non-tribal service delivery and financing systems.

Social Bonds as a Pooled Financing Mechanism to Address Social Drivers of Health Equity

This study investigates whether a novel type of social bond can pool resources across multiple competing health plans and create stable, long-term financing for interventions that address social determinants of health. The bond's design would allow multiple health plans participating in Minnesota’s Medicaid program to invest collectively in a fund that finances community-based interventions targeting social issues such as food insecurity, housing instability, transportation, and structural racism.

Bridging the Gap: Technology-Supported Peer Connections to Reduce Overdose Fatalities

This study, funded as part of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Systems for Action research program, pilot tests a novel community-embedded, technology-supported overdose response intervention that aligns medical care, public health, and social service systems to improve outcomes for persons following the experience of an overdose among people living in the Skid Row area of Los Angeles, CA. The intervention proposes to dismantle the structural racism that channels marginalized communities into overburdened low-resource medical systems with limited capacity to address underlying health and social needs, and that excludes these communities from having a voice in how these systems operate.
