This is the dedicated global community of the CRC Accelerator certification program and serves as an official home for individual advocates and organizational agents of change to gather, share and discuss ideas, and innovate together as a community. Let’s build on impactful strategies to create, grow, and sustain trauma-informed resilient communities through a PACEs science lens across.

Experiencing hardships as a child can cause many problems as we get older. This community is a place where people living and working in NJ can come together to help prevent adverse childhood experience (ACEs) and create a healthier, happier state. This group was created by the NJ ACEs Collaborative, NJ DCF, the Center for Health Care Strategies, and NJEA — but made stronger by you!

A group to share ideas on investigating and mitigating the effects of adverse childhood experiences in post-secondary education environments.

Discussion and sharing of resources in working with clients involved in the criminal justice system and how screening for and treating ACEs will lead to successful re-entry of prisoners into the community and reduced recidivism for former offenders.

We are the South Jersey ACE Initiative and we are in relentless pursuit of educating people about ACEs. Our mission is to get schools, organizations and communities to be trauma-informed and to have relentless pursuit of adding value to all of our communities.
