What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
I have worked with children, young people and families affected by psychosocial adversities for twenty years. I came across the science and principles of ACEs in 2017, especially via the launch of the film Resilience (directed by James Redford) in London, UK. At the time, I was working with families with multiple and complex needs and the film provided a lot of food for thought - and action!
In 2018, I helped found, with other amazing colleagues, the London ACEs Hub (LAH), an independent network of trauma survivors, multidisciplinary practitioners and community activists.

I am committed to continuing learning and sharing my knowledge to promote greater awareness of ACEs and mutual empowerment. Step by step, one day at a time!
