Re: The Center for the Study of Social Policy...
Local Sonoma County folks are hungry for resources to implement the "Strengthening Families" framework. Upstream Investments, First Five and Public Health's Maternal Child Adolescent Health teams offered recent training on Strengthening Families. All events immediately "sold out." How terrific that Karen shares a resource for how we can continue to learn more via this great website!

Re: Healing with Yoga
Thanks so much for taking the time to share your story! The photo of your preschoolers is fabulous. I also rely on my yoga practice to help me cope with stress. I put on a " Yoga with Adriene " youtube video every morning. This helps me get my tired and achy body moving more fluidly, and puts my mind in a much more positive space. She even recently created a video called "Yoga for After Disaster":

Re: Policy Committee Meeting Notes
Allen, Alison & Lena - You guys are awesome! Allen, these notes are great!! The ideas and strategies you outlined have the potential to nudge real systems change! Incorporating adverse community experiences, along with ACEs - is very timely - on many levels. Speaking of systems change - some may be interested to know that the CDPH Essentials for Childhood Initiative leadership is starting an effort to push toward having California become a "trauma informed state" (details TBD).

The incredible whiteness of Sonoma (Sonoma Index Tribune)
By Bill Lynch, July 13, 2020, Sonoma Index Tribune. Why is my little town of Sonoma so white? That question has crossed my mind more than once, especially recently. As best as I can remember, there were no African Americans at Sonoma Valley High School during my four years there. The residential neighborhoods of my childhood days in Sonoma were just as white. There were no reported cases of redlining, but I remember one incident when I overheard adults discussing a petition to keep a black...

I recently had the pleasure of attending via zoom, a Trauma-Informed Care training. I wanted to share some take always and encourage all to attend one. Hosted by Community Resilience Initiative, with trainer Rick Griffin.
