The ACE Messaging Work Group met on Tuesday, February 14, 2017. The three messaging groups, Youth, Older Adults, and Parents of Young Children reported in on their progress and current projected timeline for completion by end of June 2017, and provided feedback and questions to each other for each messaging theme. All groups have met within the last two weeks. The Work Group explored challenges that arose around the “what” that we are connecting people to through the messages, and how much content is needed to share something meaningful related to ACEs. Focus of grant is to connect people through messaging with existing resources, rather than to generate new resource materials.
The group explored three primary outcomes: that people will link to more information, which could be trainings or web resources; link to therapeutic resources for themselves or others, or link to ways taking action within the community to address adversity or build community resilience. The group discussed the benefits of community presentations and in person support for people learning about ACEs
