What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
I was a preschool teacher for 2 years prior to becoming a college student. I had watch a TedTalk from Dr. Nadine Burke Harris for my professional development. When I watched this video, by the end of it I was in tears. I scored a 9 on my ACEs. The realization that my childhood has not only affected me mentally and also physically really hit nerve for me. After that I have been doing all the research i can, as well as began therapy.
If you're part of a community-based PACEs initiative, which one?
N/A
