Addressing the social determinants of health and building infrastructure to ensure sustainability of innovations will be important cross-cutting themes. The workshop will bring together experts, including researchers, clinicians, and community and federal partners, to: 1) present the current state of research and critical gaps which need to be addressed in order to accelerate adoption of care models that integrate clinical and population health within well-coordinated, data-driven systems of care; 2) examine how an integrated set of evidence-based practices delivered across the entire continuum of health care services (i.e., prevention services, primary care, specialty healthcare, behavioral health care and health maintenance) in community-based settings can improve health outcomes in women and girls. The workshop will feature talks and discussion on systems of care designed to prevent and treat cardiopulmonary, metabolic and psychiatric disorders, and multi-morbidities across these disease domains by integrating behavioral and biomedical approaches. Building infrastructures that deliver these integrated interventions to women in vulnerable or un...
