Family Medicine Initiative on Trauma Informed Care (FIT)

We are proud to announce CAFP’s new peer-to-peer learning initiative, Family Medicine Initiative on Trauma-Informed Care (FIT). This is part of CAFP's broader efforts to provide information and education on Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Trauma Informed Care. See our website for updated information. 

CAFP's Family Medicine Initiative on Trauma-Informed Care (FIT) workshops, each consisting of two sessions, two weeks apart, are designed to introduce clinicians to the concepts of toxic stress and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) as they relate to trauma-informed care.

It is expected that learners will register for both session 1 and session 2 in their local district. In the first session, participants will learn about the relationship between toxic stress and chronic disease, how to screen for ACEs, and meet in small groups to discuss trauma-informed care.  In session 2, the focus will shift to best practices, practical strategies to use when responding to ACEs in their patients, as well as regional/state resources to use with patients.  Learners who attend both sessions, and participate in the Translation to Practice (t2p) Commitment to Change process can claim up to 6 AAFP Prescribed CME credits.

Statement of Need:

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and toxic stress are public health crises. ACEs are stressful or traumatic events experienced by age 18, identified in the landmark Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Kaiser Permanente (KP) Adverse Childhood Experiences Study, to be strongly associated with increased health and social risks. Early detection and intervention can help prevent or reduce the health risks associated with ACEs. 

​​​​

Support:

This activity is supported by an educational grant from Aurrera Health Group on behalf of the California Department of Health Care Services, and ACES Aware campaign.

Target Audience

The Family Medicine Initiative on Trauma-Informed Care (FIT) workshops are intended for family physicians practicing in the state of California.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this workshop, you should be able to:

  • Describe how ACEs and toxic stress disrupt physiology and influence the development of chronic disease
  • Summarize the principles of trauma-informed care as they relate to provider, staff and patient wellness
  • Formulate practical methods for responding to ACEs with trauma-informed care principles
  • Identify best practices in the use of validated ACE screening tools
  • Reference regional resources to use with patients
  • Provide feedback/suggestions to CAFP for ACEs screening road map
