In the pre-pandemic era, CCI regularly hosted summits that encouraged individuals to embrace innovation to compete in the rapidly changing health care ecosystem and address the evolving needs of their communities. Twice a year, from 2012 to 2019, CCI brought together key leaders and staff from health care safety net organizations to support the adoption and spread of promising practices. Grounded in the belief that innovation is essential for the safety net to thrive, the goal was to help attendees get inspired and learn new skills.

In 2024, we brought back this popular event so that we can once again get to know one another in an analog sort of way. We believe the safety net gets stronger with each connection we make and innovation we share — and that requires face-to-face connection.
