Hi all. I work for a nonprofit in Arkansas and some of our missions and goals allow us to advocate for ACE's. We are wanting to start helping this population more and targeting our efforts so I had a question for those of you who work with ACEs in AR. Arkansas is ranks as one of the worst for ACEs scores, but what are the specific areas or counties where we see it the most? Where should we target our efforts. Thank you!

Hi Grace,

As a starting point, I found this map on the number of ACEs by county in AR based on 2016 data:

https://www.pacesconnection.co...23v2.0%20%281%29.pdf

Looks like the NE region has a particularly high rate of 4 or more ACEs.

Might be worthwhile to reach out to AFMC to see if they have an updated map and also the work they've been doing to support communities disproportionately impacted by ACEs. Here's their contact info: https://afmc.org/contact-us/

Hope this is helpful!
