Champions for Vibrant Health Leadership Network
To help strengthen local nonprofits' organizational infrastructure, IEHP Foundation launched its Inaugural Champions for Vibrant Health Leadership Network in December 2024.
The Champions for Vibrant Health Leadership Network is a two-year leadership development program for Inland Empire community-based organizations (CBOs) that address the social determinants of health.
Over two years, IEHP Foundation will invest $4.6 million in direct grant funding to 40 CBOs serving families with children across San Bernardino and Riverside counties.
Each organization nominated an established executive leader, such as a CEO or executive director, and an emerging leader, both of whom will participate in the Leadership Network throughout 2025 and 2026. The 80 leaders will convene quarterly to bolster their skills in business management, communication, strategic thinking, change leadership, team building, succession planning and public policy and advocacy.
These selected organizations have a proven track record for supporting families and children in need, providing a wide range of services, including affordable housing, basic needs assistance, behavioral health, education, substance use treatment, youth development and workforce development— all aimed to improve the health and wellness of residents across the Inland Empire.
