What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
In my previous role as the Executive Director at Paladin Career and Technical High School, I was blessed to learn about ACEs and trauma informed care from this network. As the school administrator, I was able to lead the school through implementation of creating an ACEs Plus survey for all students and creating a school wide trauma informed care educational environment. I could not have done the work I did without the incredible information and people I met through ACEs Connections. I am passionate about schools creating systems that build resilience in all children, regardless of their ACE score, because we know that a high percentage of children will need this support to live effective, successful lives as adults. I believe this community is a valuable tool for all practitioners and I look forward to sharing ideas and learning from members.
