Adverse Childhood Experiences - ACE's
“Partnering for Resiliency Project”

PACT had been looking for ways to positively support families who may be impacted by ACE/trauma in addition to more comprehensive needs and ultimately asked the question “how can providers and school staff offer hope and tangible tools to high-needs parents so their futures and those of their children become more resilient and independent?”

PACT was fortunate to receive a Bush Foundation Innovation grant in June 2016 to increase resilience among children ages 0-8 in our five county region.

The Resiliency Project has demonstrated the true meaning of collaboration and innovation. One of the projects from this imitative was training a cohort of presenters on ACE’s. In early April of 2018, 32 people across all five counties came together to become certified as ACE Presenters. Our goal is to share the message of ACE’s and supporting resiliency in our families and communities. The more we all learn together the better we build strong resilient community. There are people in your community who can come directly to you to share this message.
