Hi,
The relationship between ACEs and Parenting is behind the theoretical framework that supports the work of Stephanie Jones, Professor at GSE Harvard):

By the way, here in Colombia we are finishing a first pilot of a program that seeks to help parents (living in extreme adversity) become a reliable source of physical and emotional protection for the child and to foster the healthy child-parent attachments that promote appropriate affect regulation and healthy emotional development. We are working with the Child Trauma Research Program at the University of California, San Francisco to develop, implement, and evaluate this group-based psychosocial intervention. Our work follows the same intuition and evidence: ACEs erode parenting quality.
Best,
Arturo
