What is it you do for a living? (Parenting, volunteering, CEO of social service organization, etc.)
I am a full-time social work graduate student with a focus in social work administration. I also work as a part-time nursing home social worker.
What organization(s) do you volunteer or work for?
I intern at the Connecticut Women's Consortium and work at Regency House of Wallingford, a skilled nursing facility under National Healthcare.
What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
I am interested in how ACE scores in parents effect parenting and parent-child relationships. I am interested in assessing the distribution of ACE scores in new parents in Connecticut and providing parents with resources to help cope with their own ACE scores. I feel that a parent who s given resources/interventions to treat their high ACE scores will be more likely to develop healthy parenting and coping strategies therefore, bettering their own children's outcomes.
