Reply to "Misuse of ACE assessment"

I personally believe taking the ACE questionnaire initiates healing. Not screening the kids keeps them from healing. I speak in schools about ACEs. This morning I passed out the questionnaire to a few classrooms in a highschool and asked them to fill it out anonymously and then shared with them what percentage of the classroom had atleast one ACE. The results were consistent with all other studies I've seen. 65%-75% of students had atleast one ACE. The best thing about it is that I was able to show them that they are not alone in this journey. Their peers have ACEs too. Sometimes that is all we want to know. I didn't have the names on any of the results so I don't know which ones were really high, but they all now know who they can turn to for help and they understand the impact of ACEs.
