I thought this article was interesting asking the question should the ACE's screening be expanded? Working with young people effected by violence who grow up in adverse communities, the answer would be YES.

Thank you for highlighting this significant area, Deangelo and pointing us to this article.
Hey, Deangelo -- Thanks for posting that link. You might be interested in this aspect of expanding the ACE pyramid -- https://www.pacesconnection.com/...d-what-do-you-think?
Your welcome Carolyn. And thanks Jane, Kanwarpal is a friend of mine so I will reach out to her and discuss this further.
Agreed!
I think ACE screening should be given to emergency responders, at least. I use the ACE and a couple other tests with private clients, and I had a police officer with an ACE of 7.
Since hurt people, hurt people, I got a little concerned. Trauma informed is not the best suit of emergency responders these days.
