I can't imagine that there would be one person in this network that would disagree with you, Sandy. The most successful trauma-informed schools, such as Cherokee Point in City Heights, San Diego, involve everyone -- teachers, staff, parents, kids, community members -- in making decisions. The whole-school programs listed in the ACEs in Education group take this approach. This approach is being taken in other sectors, too. Before a pediatric clinic in Sonoma County began asking its patients about their ACEs history, they educated a group of parents about ACEs sciences and then asked them to determine the process by which parents would be asked about their ACEs and their kids' ACEs. A Head Start program in Kansas City has involved parents in all of their decisions, from determining the language in handouts to meeting with the board of directors.
And, of course, to your point, it's very important to recognize that many caregivers themselves have high ACEs, and to create organizations that support them in their efforts to create a healing partnership with the people they're serving.
