Trauma-Informed Care Through a Public Health Lens - Sarah St. John, BSDH, RDH, RDHAP

🩵 About the Session

Join us for a powerful virtual presentation exploring Trauma-Informed Care in the context of public health and community outreach, led by Sarah St. John, BSDH, RDH, RDHAP — a pioneer in mobile dental hygiene and preventive health access.

Drawing from her extensive field experience serving unhoused, school-based, and vulnerable populations across San Diego County, Sarah will break down how trauma impacts health behaviors, access to care, and patient trust — and how providers, educators, and public-health professionals can integrate trauma-informed approaches into their daily practice.

This session is ideal for healthcare providers, nonprofit professionals, educators, and community leaders seeking to deepen their understanding of the intersection between trauma, health equity, and access.
