What you can expect!
The IEHP Foundation (IEHPF), established by the Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP), aims to address what clinical care alone cannot: the conditions that shape long-term health. The independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization collaborates with community-based organizations (CBOs) and invests in initiatives that improve community well-being and create access for families who need it most.
Mission: We inspire and ignite the health of the Inland Empire.
Vision: We will not rest until the promise of Vibrant Health exists for all of us.
Values: We foster a sense of belonging. We approach our work with humility. We are fearless!
As part of the investment into local leaders and CBOs, IEHP Foundation implements a two-year leadership development program for select mission-aligned CBOs addressing social drivers of health called the Champions for Vibrant Health Leadership Network (CFVHLN). Each selected organization nominates an executive leader and an emerging leader to participate in six in-person convenings a year to bolster their skills in business management, communication, strategic thinking, change leadership, team building, succession planning, and public policy and advocacy. Additionally, IEHP Foundation with a multitude of other partners will be embarking on a multi-year, multi-sectoral effort to improve health conditions across the region.
If you are inspired by the opportunity to strengthen local leadership, advance policy solutions and help shape a long‑term vision for Vibrant Health in the Inland Empire, we invite you to bring your skills and experience to this work. As IEHP Foundation continues investing in community‑based organizations and building the CFVHLN, this role plays a critical part in developing clear strategies, meaningful partnerships, and measurable outcomes that advance our mission and support leaders who are improving the conditions that shape long‑term health in the Inland Empire.
Reporting to the Foundation Chief Executive Officer, the Foundation Public Policy & Program Manager operates with a high level of independence and serves as the senior individual contributor responsible for shaping, directing, and advancing the IEHP Foundation’s regional leadership development strategy and public policy agenda. This role is responsible for leading the operational, programmatic, and analytical work of IEHP Foundation’s Nonprofit Leadership Development Program (Champions for Vibrant Health Leadership Network (CFVHLN)) in addition to all IEHPF Public Policy/Advocacy efforts at the local, regional, state and federal levels. The incumbent integrates leadership development, policy analysis, coalition management, and program coordination to support the Foundation’s mission to advance vibrant health in the Inland Empire. The Foundation Public Policy & Program Manager position involves planning, program execution, direct public policy efforts, and equipping others throughout the region to become better leaders and advocates for better health in the Inland Empire.
