Re: ACES Presentation for Preschool Parents (experiences, tips, etc.)
Hello, In my community the local Head Start provider has implemented Trauma Smart and enjoys it greatly with reported positive outcomes. The organization is CCS Early Learning if you'd like to connect and learn more. I do not work there, but work for a health foundation that funded their Trauma Smart work. http://traumasmart.org/ https://www.ccsalaska.org/ Best, Amy Gorn < agorn@healthymatsu.org >

Re: Looking for Information about Trauma Informed Approaches to ALICE Training
It's unfortunate that this is even an issue. I'm not that familiar with working with children but would it be possible to adapt the same trauma-informed practices for teaching to active shooter drills? You might be the first to consider addressing trauma in this scenario. Here's to hoping you connect with someone who can give you some feedback. Best of luck.

Re: For parents who want to talk to schools
Hello Ariane, I have some suggestions: Chapter 4 of The Connected Child (attached with permission) shows the disarming of fear to create felt safety in what I think is an approachable way that is easy to share with teachers. An Article of "Trauma Informed Classrooms" from Adoption Advocate (attached with permission) gives some practical framework to what is needed in a classroom setting TBRI® Animate: Toxic Stress & The Brain - is helpful as well. I provide resources for Southern...

Re: Studies Regarding ACEs and Students' Academic Success
Hi Sami, I will do some looking around but often proxy data is used since direct academic achievement success can be tricky at the individual level. Some of the proxy data may be increased attendance (which we know leads to improved academics) or discipline rates, teacher attendance and retention, and other metrics that DO have research behind them that does connect directly to academics. Here is a blog I wrote about it and a document attached to it that I created for SAMHSA,...
