Community Engagements
Local Connections
Trillium values the strong local connections we have with each of our communities. To build and maintain these relationships, we have dedicated staff who focus on community outreach and partnership development. Trillium collaborates with county departments, nonprofits, and community-based organizations to share important information and better understand the unique needs of each area.
We work with a variety of child, family and adult stakeholders and participate with groups such as:
- Permanency Planning Teams and Community Child Protection Teams (Department of Social Services)
- School Health Advisory Boards
- Exceptional Children Steering Committees (Public Schools)
- Opioid Coalitions
- Local Interagency Coordination Councils
- Healthy Community Coalitions
- Adult Multidisciplinary Team Meetings
- Consumer and Family Advisory Committees
Trillium developed a Local Community Collaboration and Engagement Strategy to support this work. Our goal is to improve the health of our Medicaid members and state-funded recipients. This strategy directs Trillium staff to:
- Educate about program eligibility
- Inform how to remain enrolled in Medicaid
- Engage with members and recipients in the community
- Learn about local unmet resource needs such as transportation, food insecurity, or housing
- Work with all stakeholders throughout our 46 counties
