Rosanra (Rosie) Yoon's (she/her) research area focuses on health services evaluation with a particular focus in integrated care for people experiencing structural vulnerabilities, substance use and mental health challenges and trauma-informed cultures of care. Her work also involves building trauma-informed organizational cultures that support workforce psychological safety. Yoon employs participatory and collaborative evaluation methods for system improvement through her Better Together Research Hub. As a nurse practitioner, her clinical area of expertise is in the areas of substance use, concurrent mental health conditions, trauma, and gender-informed care. Bridging between community-based grassroots programs and larger systems -- to collaboratively meet the needs of people and communities -- is a core value that guides her clinical and research work. Her firm belief is that health is achieved through our communities where we all work, live, play and belong.
