Save the date! National ACEs Conference, Oct. 15-17, San Francisco, CA

 

The Center for Youth Wellness and ACEs Connection are hosting the third biennial ACEs Conference Oct. 15-17, 2018, at the Hyatt Embarcadero in San Francisco, CA. The first day is devoted to a pediatric symposium. The main conference will take place Oct. 16-17.

Our theme, “Action to Access”, will draw a line from the call to action established by previous conferences to the problem of access — how different individuals and communities are able to obtain and use the information, resources, and systems they need to reduce children’s exposure to adversity and its traumatic effects.

AACTION2With dynamic breakout sessions, inspiring keynote presentations, and interactive multimedia experiences, the 2018 ACEs Conference will explore how to achieve meaningful impact across diverse groups and communities, and help participants connect with their own ACEs stories. A few of the topics to be featured at this year’s conference include the #MeToo movement, youth-led organizing, the opioid crisis, race and ACEs, and the science and strategy of self-care.

On Monday, October 15th, the Center for Youth Wellness will host its second Pediatric Symposium as a pre-conference event for pediatric medical providers and their care teams who are interested in or currently implementing ACEs screening in their practice. The symposium will showcase current screening protocols, promising practices and learnings related to ACEs screening, treatment and intervention in pediatric settings.

Hello Jane!

I wondered if you had any speakers talking about prevention...one of Dr Filetti's favorite subjects!  My book...The ACEs Revolution! is selling more every month on Amazon...and it is HEAVY on prevention.  It seems to be selling in tandem with Childhood Disrupted on Amazon according to their data.  Got a very nice note from James Reford last week...

Would love to be involved!

John
