Approaching Nutrition Security with Compassion and Connection in Medical Settings

Description:  Administrators and healthcare providers in medical settings are increasingly committed to supporting the nutrition security of their patients. Despite this dedication, navigating the breadth of the topic of nutrition security, alongside the shifting and complex nature of community resources, poses significant challenges for clinics.

This innovative training will introduce participants to a trauma-informed approach to nutrition security. Participants will explore the meaning of food in our lives and the potential impacts of adversity on the relationship between individuals, communities, and their access to and relationship with food. Additionally, the training offers a versatile framework designed to enhance patient-provider communication and review practical considerations for effective clinic-based interventions.

Join our effort to build and align community nutrition and food security efforts with trauma-informed, resilience-focused principles.

Audience:  Health care providers, health care clinics, and others working in a medical setting

Training Delivery and Dates:  This webinar series includes two live Zoom sessions on April 8 and 15 from 10:00 a.m.-11:30 a.m. PT
