Hi Everyone: I hope you are holding up o.k. I know it's early days but I'm already pretty stretched, strained, and worried. So, if you didn't see on the main page, I wanted to draw your attention to a few free things that are nurturing, calming, and can help you, especially if you are parenting and parenting with ACEs. I know I'm not the best parent I can be when I'm in survival mode so these things are welcome. Please share others as I know there are resources being offered to those that...

KQED is the NPR-affiliate public radio station based in San Francisco, CA. We’d like to hear from adults (18+) who were separated from their parents when they were children. Perhaps the separation was due to economic reasons, war and conflict, incarceration, foster care, or something else. How did that period of separation impact you in the long-run?

Our children look up to their parents/guardians most of all! And it's not to late for...

Enough money to survive and not have to sell their body for a place to stay. I'm serious. The destruction of AFDC by the Clintons has significantly worsened severe childhood ACE exposure. My my parents live in cars, have to have emotionally disabled kids to get the few dollars needed to survive via SSI - that means damaged young brains and broken young children. If if we are to take this seriously, we must be politically involved and armed with knowledge. Thanks much more later.

Jocelyn: Here's some article links that might be helpful. There's great data on general populations of adults with ACEs and even more on children with ACEs but I'm not sure there's anything that ties it together as directly as you are asking (though that would be fantastic). Here are some places for digging further. https://jamanetwork.com/journa.../fullarticle/2300375 https://www.pacesconnection.com/...xperiences-in-the-us This special issue can link you to lots of writers and researchers...
