Culture- & Trauma-Informed Training
Our team seeks to develop training and infrastructure that supports development of cultural awareness, knowledge, and skills across a range of healthcare contexts.
Our team seeks to develop training and infrastructure that supports development of cultural awareness, knowledge, and skills across a range of healthcare contexts. This work is guided by the ongoing work in Dr. Melissa Tehee’s Tohi Lab. Our current work is focused on developing culture- and trauma-informed training and resources for practicing healthcare professionals and students. In partnership with the the Intensive Outpatient Clinic (IOC) at the University of Utah, we take a trauma-informed approach to collaboratively designing a holistic and patient-centered cultural competence training. In addition to scaling implementation to potentially include training programs of healthcare professionals, we are co-investigating how the training shifts participants’ interactions with their colleagues, care for their patients, and perspectives of themselves

TEACH Training
The LED Lab and the Tohi Lab partnered to rebrand and redesign the TEACH cultural competence training to make it accessible to the USU community and more broadly to the public.
With funds from a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Inclusive Excellence award, Dr. Melissa Tehee and the Tohi Lab developed the TEACH cultural competence training. The LED Lab and the Tohi Lab partnered to rebrand and redesign the TEACH cultural competence training to make it accessible to the USU community and more broadly to the public. These combined efforts were funded, in part, by Utah State University President’s Office, the Emma Eccles Jones College of Education and Human Services, and the Instructional Technology & Sciences Department. The training is available here.
