Sure, Many of my families have older children who could benefit from the short videos. For my families with infants and toddlers, I would recommend the videos and "toolkits" geared for parents only.

Yes, I totally agree. Maybe the answer is too simple. Perhaps because we have forgotten where it all starts ….at the bottom of the pyramid; not halfway up. We have to address basic needs before we can move on. Basic needs are essential. Skipping over basic needs causes stress which impacts the brain....then you've got a problem. Lack of an adequate supply of diapers infancy and toddlerhood causes distress for an infant and his mother. Here, you have already negatively impacted the back and...

Has anyone surveyed or conducted focus groups among their patients about the process they have implemented for screening for ACEs/Resilience and offering help? If so, what are some lessons learned from the responses?

Hi there -- I'm posting here on Ped community at the suggestion of a colleague who says this may be best way to find an adult primary care doc at Kaiser. I'm a passionate advocate for ACEs awareness, and a high-ACE-score kid who writes about childhood trauma. I'm also a Kaiser member in the Oakland/Richmond area, and I'm looking for a primary care doc who REALLY knows his/her stuff about emerging ACEs science. Happily, I am healthy today, but the health problems I've had in the past have...

Dear ACEs in Pediatrics Community, We just launched a new trauma-informed children's book series called Venus and Her Fly Trip . The series has been developed in collaboration with therapists, educators, parents and healers and is designed to promote mental/social/emotional health, body positivity and imaginative play in kids 4-10 , with the ultimate goal of preventing self-hatred. I would greatly value hearing the feedback of the ACEs community on this endeavor, and welcome your ideas for...

Anna, I hope it's not too weird for me to reply to this two years later, and that it's OK for me to use this forum. I came across your post while doing a web search for another ACEs Connection issue. I'm curious, for several reasons if you ended up finding an ACEs-informed PCP in either of those Kaisers. I'm an internist in the Sutter system, now in Sacramento, but who grew up in Oakland, and whose dad spent his career working as an internist at Kaiser Oakland. I have become consumed with...

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...

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...
