I’ve had a front row seat to witness Kamala Harris be a champion for vulnerable children and families. She helped us start the Center for Youth Wellness and created the Bureau of Children’s Justice as CA Attorney General. I deeply believe she is the leader we need right now.
Excited to see clinicians beginning to incorporate treatment of toxic stress physiology in medical management of ACE-Associate Health Conditions! Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes and Stress using Neuro-Emotional Technique: A Case Report - frontiersin.org/journals/end…
Early detection and evidence-based intervention for ACEs are possible to achieve at scale. California is leading the way. sfchronicle.com/health/artic…
Thank you @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom for investing in early detection and early intervention to reduce ACEs and toxic stress. Early data is showing @ACEsAware is WORKING to improve outcomes for kids exposed to early adversity. Would love to see more states following this example.
Today, we shine a light on the importance of preventing and addressing Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and their wide-ranging impacts on individuals, communities, and our state.
California has taken action to address ACEs—and to date, has screened more than 1.5 million people.

Yesterday, I signed an executive order declaring Hawai‘i a trauma-informed state. Becoming a trauma-informed state will help alleviate some of the impacts of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and trauma, and build resilience in our families, communities, and state workforce.

A new study has quantified the annual economic burden of ACE-Associated Health Conditions at a staggering $14 trillion.
Clinicians use evidence-based strategies to mitigate toxic stress from ACEs in patients, as that toxic stress is amenable to treatment.
