ACEs Aware is an initiative launched by the California Department of Health Care Services and the Office of the California Surgeon General with the goal to reduce ACEs by half in one generation. First 5 LA, as part of a provider engagement grant with ACEs Aware, drafted a practice paper to inform large-scale systems change related to screening for and treating adverse childhood experiences by elevating the experiences of families and community-based organizations.
Findings from this paper led to the development of two briefs and an executive summary:
- Increasing Access to ACE Screening and Treatment for Young Children in L.A. County (Executive Summary)
- Family Experiences in ACE Screening and Treatment of Young Children
- Community-Based Organization Experiences in ACE Screening and Treatment of Young Children
