What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
My interest is both of a personal and professional nature. As someone who first learned of the ACES study and its implications while researching paths for my own personal journey, I have fully integrated the science into my work in various settings. Appreciating the biopsychosocial model and the critical impact early childhood & developmental trauma has on the lifespan has enhanced my approach to helping individuals seeking support through psychosocial rehabilitation, criminal case mitigation, substance use recovery and IPV survivor advocacy. I am excited to learn more.
If you're part of a community-based PACEs initiative, which one?
N/A
