What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
Childhood trauma underlies or reinforces so many of the public health and social justice issues (domestic violence, sexual violence, poverty, racial inequity, food and housing insecurity, health care access, etc.) that must be addressed to build and sustain a healthy and equitable society and world. I'm very excited to explore trauma as a root cause of these issues, and the linkages (current and potential) with other areas of public health, social justice, and anti-oppression work.
