The ACE questions are very intrusive especially with children. It is less intrusive to ask the resiliency questions. If a child has some amount of ACE indicators but also has a high resiliency score they may be able to deal with the harms that are happening to them. Just by observing students who are isolating may help identify students at risk for traumatic situations in their lives. Any community should be able to supply adult mentors to at risk students without having to use professionals. If those mentors spend a little time each week valuing the student jut by showing up they can improve the student's resiliency.
