2nd Annual SDOH C.A.R.E.S. Forum: Addressing the Social Drivers of Health and Trauma Impacting Vulnerable Populations

The Social Determinants of Health: Community. Alignment. Resource Building. Empathy. Strategy. (SDOH C.A.R.E.S.) Forum returns for its second year as a vital space to examine the profound connection between trauma, SDOH and suicide prevention-inviting all to come and learn about how upstream influences shape community well-being.

The forum will emphasize how our environments impact behavioral health, especially for those affected by trauma and structural inequalities. With a focus on equity and upstream strategies the SDOH CARES Forum highlights how reducing trauma and addressing social and structural factors can minimize suicide risk by promoting resilience, connectedness and access to critical resources. Attendees will engage in innovative discussions, cross-sector partnerships, diverse lived experiences and a chance to envision and build collective approaches that will illustrate how proactive methods can reduce trauma and suicide, creating a healthier future for all!
