Learn the Science of PACEs

By the County’s Trauma-informed Systems Integration team

Here at the County, we use the science of Positive and Adverse Childhood Experiences (PACEs) to support our County's Trauma-Informed Systems Integration. Being trauma-informed means acknowledging that trauma is prevalent and has an impact on behavior and relationships.

No matter what our life experiences are, learning about the science of PACEs can help us thrive in our roles at work, and at home. Building on the evidence-based knowledge that the brain is elastic and the body wants to heal, we can actively practice compassion, understanding, and promote resilience-building.
