ACEs Connection Update from Tory 
I’m the Community Manage for Washington State ACEs Action, so if there’s information you have to share or would like to see there, let me know. Once you join, you can post information there yourself as well. 

We’ve added a box with links to local WA ACEs Connection Communities: Kitsap Strong, Walla Walla – and our newest community Tacoma-Pierce County. Soon ACEs Connection will be adding the Community Presentation Tracker to Washington ACEs Action.

You can see an example on the Walla Walla community page here

If you’ve had presentations in your community and/or provided presentations, stay tuned for how to add the data to our tracker for the state.

If you haven’t already, you might want to join ACEs Connection and Washington State ACEs Action.


Starting an ACEs Connection Community 
If you’d like to learn more about starting an ACEs Connection community for your county or community, contact Tory (email below) or Karen Clemmer, with ACEs Connection. Karen is the contact for Washington State (also Alaska, Hawaii, Oregon and Northern California); contact Karen at kclemmer@acesconnection.com
