Webinar Recording and Resources - Crossroads of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Developmental Disabilities
For many healthcare providers, it can be challenging to distinguish between behaviors associated with a developmental disability and behaviors resulting from adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). It takes coordination across multiple disciplines to ensure early and accurate diagnosis and treatment of ACEs and/or developmental disabilities. Research has shown that individuals with disabilities are at increased risk for experiencing violence of all types, especially physical violence and...

Why I believe Gregory Williams, and his book, Shattered By The Darkness, will help save lives and revolutionize healthcare.
When you first hear about it, it sounds unlikely, fact that something that happened to someone in utero, at the age of two months, or four years, or any time in childhood, is what is killing them as an adult, or making them want to die, or making them want to hurt themselves or others. Yet the connection between childhood trauma and adult disease, mental illness, addiction, suicide, violence – most all of society’s ills – is as irrefutable as the myriad truths revealed about it in the...

Re: ACE's questionnaire in Pediatric emergency room
I'm a pediatric neurologist at University of Alabama at Birmingham and Children's of Alabama. ACEs in the Peds ED: I've discussed ACE screening with some of my Peds ED colleagues (and there's interest) but that's as far as we've gotten.... ACE screening elsewhere: Is anyone doing ACEs in sub-specialty pediatrics? I am looking for help on "best practices" in this setting. Over the past few months I have been informally asking an unscientific sample of my parents in Peds Neurology clinic to...

Re: ACE's questionnaire in Pediatric emergency room
I’m kind of bad here because I didn’t read your entire reply but this area of somatic complaints and concerns over behavioral problems like ADHD - is really where I started asking the ACE questions mixed in with a bunch of other psychosocial questions - and the ACEs were always very high. I’ve been doing this since at least 2004. Rahil Briggs is awesome in this area as is NBHarris and they have a webinar coming up in a few days on integrating this into care. For Neurology - chronic...

Re: Medical Authorities with Academic Blinders look the other Way: Reject ACES
Thank you for being so concerned and so passionate. As an advocate for good medicine and good therapy and for helping traumatized kids, I recognize some of your concerns, but others, in my experience, are not as significant as you think. (1) There is a lot of family violence, We have to do everything we can to prevent it and to treat its effects. (2) CYW is definitely not the government, Dr. BH may be part of government now but I see that as a great success in changing public policy to deal...

Re: Medical Authorities with Academic Blinders look the other Way: Reject ACES
Is it Social Justice to take disadvantaged kids (or any kids) and to collect their Name, DOB, Medicaid Number and a Billing Code representing 4 or more ACES or Less than 4 ACES and send that information to the state? Can you tell me Jeff please; is that your idea of Social Justice? It is not my idea of Social Justice and all I have seen from the California community is getting a score - nothing about how to talk to parents about the score or anything.... Just GET THAT SCORE DOCTOR. This does...

Re: Medical Authorities with Academic Blinders look the other Way: Reject ACES
You DO NOT NEED AN ACE SCORE to get a psychosocial history. You do not need to put a family at risk to do a psychosocial history and provide services to patients. I know. I have been doing it for 20 years. All this score can be used for when put in the medical record is to harm children, parents and families. If I were forced to get this score, I would tell all my patients that the government is forcing me to ask you questions that could put you at risk for having your children removed from...

Adverse Babyhood Experiences (ABEs): 10 New Categories of Adversity Before a Child's 3rd Birthday (Free Downloadable Journal Article)

ABEs occur before a child’s 3rd birthday to influence infant and maternal morbidity and mortality. ABEs are also risk factors for chronic illnesses and other chronic conditions in the child as well as symptoms in parents.
