I encountered an article about ACE's on Facebook...the site is an online magazine or journal of sorts named "The Cut". This particular article addresses ACE's in relation to marginalized communities of color. On a personal note it spoke to my own life. I began reading other articles and watching some TED Talks on the subject and quickly realized this most definitely needs to be presented to communities to assist in the healing process in respective cultures. ACE's is a vital component I believe in teaching cultural humility. I have recently begun work with UC Davis Hospital Behavioral Health Dept in the work they too are pursuing. I extend my thanks to Wendie Skala for the invitation to join this group!
