Childhood Trauma Research Drives Policy in California

Elizabeth Prewitt PACEsConnection writer 7/8/1412:00 PM

Assemblymember Raul Bocanegra (D) introduced the Assembly Concurrent Resolution 155 – Adverse Childhood Experiences and Toxic Stress, which cleared the Assembly Health Committee on June 17, and will head to the assembly floor for a full vote sometime in August after the summer recess.
