What is it you do for a living? (Parenting, volunteering, CEO of social service organization, etc.)
Retired QMHP; Prisoner Health Committee Coordinator
What organization(s) do you volunteer or work for?
I volunteer: Missouri CURE, a prison reform and advocacy organization
What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
I was part of the implementation of Trauma Informed Care at my former work place. I am particularly interested in raising awareness of the impact of trauma in incarcerated men, particularly those exposed to perpetuated trauma ("toxic stress"). This has been completely neglected. Incorporating gender and culturally responsive TI programs is a key to healing and successful re-entry.
If you're part of a community-based PACEs initiative, which one?
I am not. I did online research.
