Healthcare > Wellness webinar by OneOp for Enhancing Military Family Well-Being: Understanding and Nurturing Economic Security
Enhancing Military Family Well-Being: Understanding and Nurturing Economic Security
During the 2024 Military Family Readiness Academy, we will explore the connection between economic security and family well-being and how to address disparities and challenges.  We’ll look beyond achieving and sustaining positive personal and family financial outcomes by exploring how various conditions affect overall economic security. We’ll delve into underlying factors relating to social dynamics, environmental influences, and community characteristics. We’ll give special focus to how these factors relate to health and wellness as a foundation of economic security.  This webinar will help to empower service providers to leverage their knowledge, skills, and available resources to effectively promote health and well-being.Learning Objectives:• Review the various factors, often called the “social drivers of health,” or SDOH, that influence health and well-being.• Promote a mindset that empowers providers to focus on understanding the root causes of health and wellness challenges and to be change agents for positive outcomes.• Recognize that such a mindset requires a holistic or ecological approach to understanding how underlying contextual factors, individual circumstances, institutions, and programs interact with each other.• Examine how various organizations and institutions are fostering efforts to encourage awareness and action to address health disparities and to promote well-being – with a special focus on the U.S. military and the Cooperative Extension system.• Identify various state and federal programs that can contribute to military family health and wellness, with a special focus on TRICARE, VA health benefits, Medicaid, and Medicare.• Consider possible new programs and policy developments relevant to military family health and well-being.A case story is used throughout the course and webinars in the 2024 Military Family Readiness Academy. This case story provides an opportunity to examine resources and services within the Military Family Readiness System. This family’s example asks service providers to consider the skills they need to support family well-being through the lens of economic security.

Healthcare > Wellness webinar by Duke-NUS Medical School for CARE Experts Webinar: Examining implications of widowhood on well-being: Results and Challenges
CARE Experts Webinar: Examining implications of widowhood on well-being: Results and Challenges
Losing a partner is a life-changing experience. We draw on numerous datasets to examine differences between widowed and partnered older women and to provide a comprehensive picture of well-being in widowhood. Most importantly, our analysis accounts for time use in widowhood, an aspect which has not been studied previously. Based on data from several European countries we trace the evolution of well-being of women who become widowed by comparing them with their matched non-widowed ‘statistical twins’ and examine the role of an exceptionally broad set of potential moderators of widowhood’s impact on well-being. We confirm a dramatic decrease in mental health and life satisfaction after the loss of a partner, followed by a slow recovery. An extensive set of controls recorded prior to widowhood, including detailed family ties and social networks, provides little help in explaining the deterioration in well-being. Unique data from time-diaries kept by older women from several European countries and the U.S. tell us why: the key factor behind widows’ reduced well-being is increased time spent alone.Presented by Dr. Michal Myck, Director, Centre for Economic Analysis, CenEA.
