The participation of Medical Director staff for the State of Minnesota’s Medicaid program in the Health Equity Research Assembly provides a strength in that they will provide guidance, facilitate support for implementation of the proposed intervention, disseminate study findings and expand the models and policies beyond the study participants.

June 2, 2023 Status Report to CMRC Members from Grant Coordinator

 

 

 Fri, Jun 2, 2023 at 7:57 AM Kathy Harowski

 Hello CMRC, many of you had signed on with interest in the ComPASS opportunity HEALINGS: Food culture and health.  Emailing today with disappointing news, we have been informed that our proposal will not move forward into funding negotiations. 

After June 30th, I will be able to look at the impact score and ratings and will be happy to share those. For sure disappointed that this program will not help support community efforts around health, wellness and food access moving forward.

About Beam

Community Beam (dmcbeam.org) is a registry of private and public resources (organizations, projects, initiatives, programs) that underpin economic and social developments of greater Rochester:

  • For the commercial sector, we tend to register startup activities (new companies and new commercial projects) that bring diversification and high-impact opportunities to the area.
  • For the non-profit sector, we wish to shine light on all the organizations and services that otherwise labor under relative obscurity.
  • Our hope is that dmcbeam.org will encourage cross-sector collaborations and creative solutions.

While there are a number of registries in the community, dmcbeam.org's  distinct value is to pilot a database with a data structure and categorizations that answer the questions such as: What organizations or projects/programs in our community that have purported relevance with some of the over-arching focuses put forward by initiatives such as DMC, J2G and Health Improvements?

This database could be used as one of the ways to explore the capacities of the community. If you are someone on an exploratory journey to learn about the greater Rochester community. dmcbeam.org could be an interesting first step.
