Reply to "Community initiatives that raise awareness of ACEs and toxic stress among parents and caregivers?"

There are a few things we have done in our community. A local community coalition hosted two showings of the film Resilience. This was a starting point in getting the community discussing the effects of trauma and the protective factors. This generated a lot of interest in continued training on mental health related topics for community members, and teachers.

We also teach a trauma informed parenting class based on the TBRI principles developed by Dr. Purvis, and other research on trauma, at a local substance abuse recovery program. This has been very well received and been a great opportunity to discuss trauma, and healing with mothers.
