What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
My interest in PACEs (Positive and Adverse Childhood Experiences) and resilience science aligns with supporting individuals, families, and communities in fostering well-being and addressing challenges related to trauma and toxic stress. These fields provide a foundation for understanding how early experiences—both positive and negative—affect development, relationships, and lifelong health.
I'm particularly drawn to the ways resilience science highlights the power of protective factors, such as secure relationships, social connections, and self-regulation skills, to buffer against adversity. This complements PACEs by focusing not just on preventing or mitigating the impacts of adverse experiences but also on enhancing the positive experiences that promote thriving.
If you're part of a community-based PACEs initiative, which one?
N/A
