We support safe, stable, nurturing relationships and environments for children, youth and families by promoting change in organizations, systems, policies and social norms across the state.

We advocate for the bio/psycho/social well being of foster children. We recognize, acknowledge and validate the trauma endured by children placed in foster care. We embrace the capacity of healing and ultimate recovery for foster children with family, community and professional support.

How do we honor both lived & learned expertise to break down barriers between parents & professionals? How do PACE-impacted families best access healing, hope & health? How might parent education, training, & support services if co-created with families & in community?

The State PACEs Action is the go-to location for ACEs activities in U.S. states.
