The Trauma-Informed Utah Initiative is a collaborative community grant project sponsored by the Utah Department of Health and administered by the Social Research Institute at the University of Utah's College of Social Work. My role is to facilitate the establishment of a statewide collaborative that will support the integration of trauma-informed policies and practices within organizations and businesses across Utah.

HMHI is a psychiatric hospital that primarily offers inpatient psychiatric services. I provide weekend coverage for the youth/adolescent inpatient social work team. I conduct intake assessments and facilitate therapeutic process groups.
