This group is focused on the descendants of Africans dispersed throughout the Americas during the Transatlantic Slave Trades. Topics include adverse childhood experiences, historical trauma, intergenerational transmission of trauma, African American parenting practices, health disparities, the effects of racism, microaggressions and implicit bias, as well as resiliency and posttraumatic growth.

Peace4Tarpon is dedicated to the awareness and understanding of childhood (ACEs) and adult trauma and the resulting negative effects on community, systems and society. We believe this understanding will transform attitudes and empower community resilience. We invite you to join us.
