Community Facilitator for the Capitol and Central Valley regions of California
What organization(s) do you volunteer or work for?
PACEs connection
What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
As a social worker who identifies as a person in recovery, I am very interested in ACEs research and resilience science because of my lived experiences. I am also interested in anti-oppressive social work practices, non-western, community-based and harm reductionist forms of intervention and support. I am interested moving ACEs initiatives forward and focusing on new forms of social justice research and data that will further transform the field of mental health and intervention work with youth and adults from impacted communities.
If you're part of a community-based PACEs initiative, which one?
Capitol and Central Valley region
