Violence as a Health Crisis: What Does the Research Say about Reducing Violence?
Thursday, February 22, 2018 at 12:00 to 01:30 PM

By the end of 2017, Baltimore suffered 343 homicides, a new record for killings per capita. This continues a troubling trajectory; overall violent crime between 2012 to 2017 is up 9.8 percent. Most categories of violent crime either increased or stayed about the same, with the biggest percentage growths in homicides, shootings and robberies. Join expert researchers to learn about violence as a health crisis and research-based best practices around reducing violence. We’ll also discuss how these practices are (or could be) implemented in Baltimore.

Growing Together Part 3: Building Early Relational Health for Stronger Families and Communities
Tuesday, April 08, 2025 at 03:00 to 04:00 PM

Science has shown us something powerful: the relationships babies and young children form with their parents and caregivers shape their health, learning, and resilience for a lifetime. For part 3 of our learning series on Early Relational Health, Maryland Philanthropy Network's Prenatal to Five Affinity Group is pleased to host Atiya Weiss, Executive Director of the Burke Foundation, and Ira Hillman, Strategy Lead on Bonding at the Einhorn Collaborative, a nonprofit foundation dedicated to addressing America’s growing crisis of connection. Together we will explore how fostering strong, nurturing relationships can transform the lives of infants, toddlers, and their families – laying a solid foundation for success in school, work and life.
