Reply to "Researcher looking for Gaps"

Hey Suzanne,

I'm a school-based Trauma Educator in Northern California -- one of the conversations I keep saying hasn't happened yet is the connection between trauma-impacted kids and special education diagnosis. (A million years ago, before ACEs) my dissertation looked at outcomes for two categories of SPED: SED and EDBD - severely emotionally disturbed and emotionally disturbed behaviorally disordered -- now, with all the ACEs research we know that these are the kids -- mostly black and brown -- who are impacted by trauma, likely complex trauma. During my trainings I frequently get questions regarding different SPED diagnoses because trauma symptoms can mimic behaviors identifiable as ADHD, for example. 

So - my input on where there are gaps would be to address this open question of ACEs and SPED :-) Happy to talk more offline if you'd like...
