Trauma Informed Congregations - A Strategy Document
Hi Folks, I have recently been trained as an ACE Master Trainer through the Children's Trust of South Carolina . In the training we received materials from ACE Interface . My special interest is working with churches and ministries to educate and equip them to be better trauma-informed and to increase the resilience of members of their congregation and of the communities members they serve.

Power Point Slides on Neuroplasticity
I'm presenting a talk to a group of Pastors on ACES but the slide deck on ACES that I received does not have any slides on Neuroplasticity, from either a science perspective or from a biblical perspective. Do any of you have a few slides that you'd be willing to share with me? Thanks so much in advance!! Have an awesome day! Dale

Re: Trauma Informed Congregations - A Strategy Document
Hi there! SO happy I found this faith-based ACE resource! I am putting together a simple basic presentation for a local congregation and I wanted to speak on creating a safe trauma-informed congregation. I was directed to this ACE faith-based focus. Could I use some of your work and of course, give credit where it is due? I am also putting together a resource list. Do you have any suggestions for faith-based books? I do not know many faith-based books for trauma survivors. Thank you!

Dear Dale, This looks very good. Raising awareness about the long-term effects of abuse (which eliminates the minimizing of an incident should it occur) and equipping the leadership and the members of the congregation with ways to prevent abuse are tangible ways to empower people to make appropriate responses should it occur. I especially like point 4c about sermons and Bible studies that explore this topic . It has to be brought out into the open! With my best, Dianne Darr Couts Survivor,...

HI Dianne, Thanks for the note... and I'm glad that you found the document helpful. The more we can inform people of faith about ACEs, the better equipped we can become to minister to those affected. ~ Dale

Podcast hosts?
Good morning, everyone. As a writer and speaker who has recovered from childhood, I advocate for children and survivors. Can any of you recommend faith-based podcast hosts who are currently looking for guests to speak about ACES and/or healing from childhood abuse/trauma? Thanks and happy Easter!

Yes, I have been producing a podcast for a radio station for 4 years. I talk about recovery from a faith-based perspective. I am always looking for folks to interview. Please contact me in a PM.
