Trauma-informed interprofessional education: Preliminary evaluation of building student capacity for system-wide collaboration.

This study employs a mixed-methods approach to program evaluation. Data sources include program application materials (demographics and data related to clinical interests, student goals, and preparedness for interprofessional work). Data is also drawn from measures of student outcomes (self-efficacy navigating complex care patients, empathy, and complex care knowledge). Results: Baseline data are reported for demographics, students’ goals and interprofessional interests, and student outcomes. Information is also presented relevant to trainings conducted in the grant’s first year and planned for subsequent years. Preliminary data and implementation suggest that the program has drawn diverse trainees who are committed to interprofessional, integrated care for underserved youth. Discussion: Recruitment and program development challenges are discussed, along with grant goals’ fit with students’ interests and plans for future evaluation.
