Using the term Trauma-Informed

I am wondering how to appropriately use the word trauma-informed. My understanding that it refers to work that is specifically therapeutic and a trauma-based intervention. My work is more about aligning other areas (nutrition programs) with trauma-informed principles and practices. I am trying to use the word trauma-sensitive even though it is a less familiar term to the general public. Any thoughts and suggestions? Has trauma-informed now become a catchall phrase (and maybe lost its true meaning) or should I care to make the distinction? Is trauma sensitive more appropriate or is there another term?
