What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
I’ve worked in the fields of addiction, mental health, social services and incarceration for 8+ years. The study of ACEs and how to use them to better understand individuals, families and our community is very important to me. My goal is to use this knowledge to create programs to positively influence those that struggle with ACEs. I also would like to develop a greater level of awareness and education in our community about ACEs that will, in turn, reduce the stigma associated with things like addiction, mental health and poverty.
