Trauma-Informed Health Communications 101:
Targeting Low-Income Communities of Color

Participants in the communications sessions will learn skills to develop trauma-informed and culturally-relevant health communications messaging that resonates with African American audiences and encourages sustainable lifestyle changes.

Participants will also learn about the unique social determinants (including ongoing exposure to stress and trauma) that low-income, urban and under-resourced residents face, and how a protective factor-informed (asset-based) approach will enhance community engagement efforts.

Participants will learn the importance of community mobilization and how community-based organizations, non-profits, and community opinion leaders are an effective and cost-efficient public health communications channel.
