The City of buhl OFFICIALS SELECTED FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH ACADEMY
~ The Blue Cross of Idaho Foundation for Health program provides opportunities for city and community leaders to explore how they can improve the health of their communities ~
Boise, Idaho – Mayor Pamela McClain and Karen Drown, City Clerk are participating in the Community Health Academy, a program of the Blue Cross of Idaho Foundation for Health that helps attendees learn and understand the city’s important role in building healthy communities.
Community Health is a five-month learning collaborative that brings together leaders from Idaho communities to learn from local and national experts, collaborate with each other, and activate a program or project that improves the health of their community. The city will earn a $20,000 grant at the conclusion of the academy.
“We want to create a culture of health for our community, and I think about what it takes to get there. It’s overwhelming and I am sure it doesn’t happen overnight. I want to look at how we can identify the policies to put in place and find ways to leverage the financial aspect of creating something sustainable. I look forward to learning more about out of the box thinking and networking with other cities comparable to Buhl in size. Community health is very important, and I feel it is a privilege to attend the 2023 academy.”
The academy will launch on Friday, June 23 at the Association of Idaho Cities annual conference, then include sessions in July, August, September and October. The academy uses a hybrid model with some sessions done in person and some virtually. Topics addressed during the academy include childcare, civility, early education, communications and branding, designing health communities, food systems, and housing.
“Community Health Academy is one of our most impactful programs because most mayors and elected officials learn how their actions can help build healthy communities,” said Courtney Frost, senior program officer for the Blue Cross of Idaho Foundation for Health. “The academy includes grant funding, so cities will have the resources to launch a project or program that will improve the health of communities in Idaho.”
Community Health Academy has been offered by the Blue Cross of Idaho Foundation for Health since 2017. There have been 24 Idaho communities that have attended the previous five cohorts of the academy.
