Hundreds from Humboldt Came Together for the Third Town Hall on ACEs

 

On November 21st, 2019 we had the pleasure of welcoming California's Surgeon General, and ACEs Champion, Dr. Nadine Burke Harris to Humboldt County for the third town hall event on ACEs and resilience hosted by Senator Mike McGuire and First 5 Humboldt. This event was an opportunity for the community to come together again to deepen awareness of the impacts of ACEs on our children and families, and what has been done over the years to address and prevent childhood adversity at local and state levels.

Hundreds of community members heard from local leaders including Erika Tracy, Director of the Hoopa Tribal Education Association; Chris Hartley, Superintendent of Humboldt County Schools; Connie Beck, Director of the Humboldt County Department of Health and Human Services; and Dr. Candy Stockton, Medical Director of the Humboldt Independent Practice Association. After having the chance to hear about some of the innovative work that is being done across the county and at the state level, the audience was invited to ask questions and provide feedback about what more can be done and how we all can continue to come together on this issue.

Watch the entire event below.
