La Clínica de La Raza, Inc. (La Clínica) is a Federally Qualified Health Center that strives to improve the quality of life of the diverse communities it serves by providing culturally appropriate, high quality, and accessible health care for all. In response to the significant need for trauma services among low income, minority, and immigrant youth in Alameda County, California, La Clínica proposes to implement the Screening, Treatment and Trauma Training in Primary Care (STATT- PC) program across its eight School-Based Health Centers. STATT-PC aims to expand access to trauma-focused services for youth (ages 11-21) who have been exposed to community violence, physical abuses, domestic violence and/or other traumatic events. Specifically, STATT-PC has five primary goals that frame key activities: 1) Training - Improve trauma-informed practices in child-serving school and medical systems through trainings on child trauma and vicarious trauma. 2) Outreach, Engagement, and Screening - Integrate effective outreach and engagement practices and trauma identification tools and systems into primary care and school settings. 3) Access - Improve student access to trauma-informed staff, spaces, and services. 4) Direct Trauma Services - Provide tier II and III trauma treatment to youth experiencing trauma symptoms through group and 1:1 trauma treatment interventions including: Supporting Transition Resilience of Newcomer Groups, adapted Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools, adapted Seeking Safety, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. La Clínica will implement at least 7 groups/year and group intervention type may shift depending on clinical fit for youth population 5) Network Collaboration - Collaborate with members of the National Child Traumatic Stress Network, including Cat I, Cat II and Cat III agencies in order to develop, advance and adapt interventions to improve engagement and outcomes for traumatized youth. La Clinica will serve 106 youth in the first year of the project and 131 thereafter with a total of 630 youth served in five years.
