What is it you do for a living? (Parenting, volunteering, CEO of social service organization, etc.)

I am the Program Coordinator for Help Me Grow Yolo. Currently the project is focusing on developmental screenings for children 0-5 and community outreach. In the future we will be developing a call center that anyone in the community can call to access resources and screenings for children 0-5, as well as healthcare provider outreach.

What organization(s) do you volunteer or work for?

Help Me Grow Yolo, Yolo Family Service Agency

What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?

I find the research around epigenetics and how chronic adverse child experiences affect child development across their life span very interesting. I think that by helping people be more informed that possibly the stigma associated with these experiences can be lowered to help build resilience and possible stop a cycle. It is important to share and discussed this information more in the field of child development and with those working with families. I want to be able to articulate ACE concepts with the families and providers that Help Me Grow works with.
