What is it you do for a living? (Parenting, volunteering, CEO of social service organization, etc.)
I am the executive director of an urban preschool and family services program. I am also a Licensed Professional Counselor and an Art Therapist.
What organization(s) do you volunteer or work for?
I work for Children's Day Preschool and Family Center in Passaic, NJ. We are a high-quality early care and education program that provides a therapeutic approach- and therapeutic services to the children and families enrolled in our school.
What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
Understanding ACEs and the vital importance of building a child's resilience is a critical first step in helping all individuals grow to their full potential. It is an important part of the work that we do every day in our preschool program, and I would love to see all schools embrace these concepts and strength-based ways of supporting the growth of all children and families.
If you're part of a community-based PACEs initiative, which one?
New Jersey
