WHAT WE DO
-
Educate people in Amador County about adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and the effects of toxic stress by creating materials and hosting ACEs trainings across sectors, promoting awareness through various media formats.
-
Actively support the implementation of trauma-informed practices that increase resilience and wellness for all residents, through peer led workforce trainings on the impact of ACEs and introducing trauma-informed awareness.
-
Recognize the mental and emotional impact on those who provide services to communities that experience high ACE scores. Seeks to create a supportive environment that promotes self-care and resilience building for our members.
-
Provide opportunities for community members to network and learn from each other.
-
During Child Abuse Prevention Month this year we focused on Resilience: during these uncertain times, how can we build and practice RESILIENCE? We asked people from around Amador County to share how they’ve been coping, and we hope these examples and stories of RESILIENCE will inspire you!
