Working Towards Systemic Change: Understanding Trauma and Reconceptualizing Social Determinants of Health

Participants will gain foundational knowledge of trauma-informed principles and receive an introduction to racial trauma. Attendees will begin to reconceptualize current applications of social determinants of health to be conscious of a racially/culturally trauma-informed lens. The webinar will close with actionable steps to implement in both individual work environments as well as in larger community and systems.

• Describe how a trauma informed lens differs from a racially/culturally trauma informed lens.
• Reconceptualize current utilization of social determinants of health.
• Discuss how family-centered care can be implemented at the individual level and in larger systems.
