By "ACEs Study," do you mean the full-blown type of study conducted by Drs. Felitti and Anda? Or do you mean collection of the ACEs data for your state? If it's the former, I don't know. If it's the latter, I can offer some suggestions. Your public health department would be lthe place to start. They conduct the yearly behavioral risk factor surveillance system surveys, and they would have to add the ACE module to their survey.
Some helpful information on this: As you may know, the BRFSS is a telephone survey. Each state chooses specific modules validated by the CDC - modules may be about smoking, alcohol consumption, seat belt use, etc. Some modules are very short. Some are longer, and the ACE module is one of the longer (if not the longest), at 20 minutes. It is also difficult since very specific questions are asked about early traumatic experiences. Many people hang up before the survey is finished.
For these reasons, there can be reluctance to include the ACE module in the BRFSS survey. So if you approach your public health department (and I hope you do), it would be wise to go prepared to speak about the health impacts of ACEs. I would take data - take print outs of the ACEs study for them.
As a doctor, you would be a particularly strong advocate.
Best luck!
