What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
I do ACE screens on my clients during pregnancy and we talk alot about resilience, in addition to what they can do as parents to reduce ACE's in their children. We follow first-time parents living in poverty, from early in their pregnancy until their child is two. I've had incredible conversations with families in discussing ACE's and am so thankful we received training on how to bring the screening and information to our home visits. We incorporate NEAR@Home in our practice (NEAR = Neuroscience, Epigenetics, ACEs, Resilience).
