What is it you do for a living? (Parenting, volunteering, CEO of social service organization, etc.)
Founder and Chief Movement Officer of The Jesse Lewis Choose Love Movement
What organization(s) do you volunteer or work for?
The Jesse Lewis Choose Love Movement™ is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission to create safer schools and communities through a no-cost, lifespan social and emotional learning platform that not only teaches children and adults the life skills that are essential to happiness and success, but also fosters a culture that reduces violence from the inside out.
What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
In the Choose Love Movement, we are trying to inoculate children to give them the skills, tools, and awareness that can help reduce and prevent the suffering following a trauma. Their environment might not change, but their response to it will. We are not changing what happens to the children or their environment, but we're reaching out to them and changing their thoughtful response in their understanding of what is happening and their expectations.
If you're part of a community-based PACEs initiative, which one?
We are not part of a community-based ACEs initiative
