PACEs Connection is a social network that recognizes the impact of a wide variety of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) in shaping adult behavior and health, and that promotes trauma-informed, healing-centered and resilience-building practices and policies in all families, organizations, systems, and communities.

We support communities ([link removed]) to accelerate the science of positive and adverse childhood experiences to solve our most intractable problems. During the past year we have focused attention on each of our core areas: Prevention, Support, Community and Tools.

For established initiatives, as part of our Sustaining Resilient Communities ([link removed]) program, our Cooperative of Communities ([link removed]) is able to access more advanced tools and services. These communities are in it for the long haul. ([link removed]) As those of you who have been involved in spreading the word about PACEs science and in integrating practices and policies based on PACEs science, the transition to healing-centered cultures is not a three- or four-year endeavor. Depending on the community, it can be a 20-year endeavor.

Our recently updated PACEs Connection Resource Center ([link removed]) is likely the foremost single resource for information on the science of positive and adverse childhood experiences. Built on the same type of platform used by colleges and community libraries, it puts literally thousands of free resources: ACEs studies, ACEs and Resilience surveys, scientific papers, videos, presentations, white papers and more at your fingertips. Resources on structural racism to self-care, from starting a PACEs initiative in your community to practicing restorative justice, from creating and supporting trauma-informed schools. This past year the Cape Fear Collective ([link removed]) helped create tools to map the movement ([link removed]) and support communities with data. Cape Fear Collective is currently in the process of creating data dashboards for PACEs Connections'
Cooperative of Communities.

Your gift of $250 will support our efforts to provide free programs and events that educate the public about both positive and adverse childhood experiences, like this one, our Historical Trauma in America series ([link removed]) and our Creating Resilient Communities Accelerator ([link removed]) . Your gift of $1,500 will ensure that our top-rated podcast, History. Culture, Trauma. ([link removed]) , continues to raise awareness of historical trauma, racism, and social determinants of health. A monthly contribution of $250 will support the PACEs Connection Resource Center ([link removed]) for an entire year. The cost to sponsor a community in our Cooperative of Communities is $5,000 annually. The strength of our organization is evidenced by our support of our members and communities. Any amount
is helpful and appreciated.

With Love & Justice,

Ingrid Cockhren
CEO, PACEs Connection
