The summit is scheduled for Oct. 9-10 in Louisville, Ky. The organization is seeking proposals about how organizations are directly addressing population health issues.
The Root Cause Coalition was founded in 2015 to improve the health of America’s disenfranchised communities by tackling issues pertaining to social determinants of health like poverty, housing instability and hunger.
Members range from nationally known nonprofits to small businesses and community organizations. They addresses these issues by engaging communities in collaborative population health projects and deploying the organization’s collective influence to inform public policy.
