Stress Busters Handout

Natalie Audage 11/5/211:15 PM

We all have inner strengths and resilience that can help us deal with challenges and stress. To help us manage stress, PACEs Connection and ACEs Aware created a handout based on seven evidence-based stress busters, as described in the Roadmap for Resilience: The California Surgeon General’s Report on Adverse Childhood Experiences, Toxic Stress, and Health. These interventions can help reduce stress, improve health, and build resilience.

Please share widely! The handout is available in the following languages:

English
Spanish
Arabic
Dari
Farsi

The California Virtual Training Academy (VTA) provided support in the creation and translation of this handout. This resource was reviewed by the California Collaborative ACEs Learning and Quality Improvement Collaborative (CALQIC) Patient Community Advisory Board. CALQIC also supported translation of the document.

I just want to say hello and introduce myself. I'm in Western North Carolina. And besides the Buncombe County, NC group, you may be my nearest connection. Drive north on 441 and you'll end up right here.

I am the founder of SEASCAT.org where we advocate for survivors of child abuse and trauma. SEASCAT.org is an organizational member of the National Coalition for the Homeless where we fight to get more trauma-informed care included in housing programs. I actually know several people in the Atlanta area through NCH. No one can be homeless for long without there being some trauma. And the most chronic homeless are people with the highest ACE scores, people with diagnoses such as DID and C-PTSD. Those of us who don't trust others avoid shelters and live in hide-outs in the woods or out of our cars. I doubt we get counted.

I found out recently through a meeting of nlihc that we don't need a 501(C)3 to apply for funds for a "Permanent Supportive Housing" program here. I'm including a poster that I've been sending out. Please share widely. I'm in Jackson County, NC but the next county south of here is Macon County, which is right next to Clayton, GA (the town, not county). I've often wondered, financially, if a person, or an organization, is better off on this side of the state line or your side of the state line.

I welcome people connecting. seascat@gmail.com or SEASCAT.org.
