Description

This event is to raise awareness about ACEs and the impact of violence on our Youth & Community as a whole. A high percentage of people in the world has experienced at least one ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences). The more ACEs you've experienced the higher you're at risk for negative health outcomes and engaging in risky behaviors; The more you're always on high alert and feeling as if everything is a threat. You're always in Survival Mode (Fight or Flight). Most of our children here in the City of Vallejo have experienced a pile of ACEs everyday. One that tends to be common is violence. It's time to seriously address it! Following the screening is an amazing group of panelists that bring diverse perspectives. Riley Graden (Impact Vallejo Youth Council), Leilani Vallejos (Impact Vallejo Youth Council), Erin Hannigan (Solano County Board of Supervisor), Shawnny Williams (Vallejo Police Chief ), Pippen Dew (Vallejo City Councilmember), Crystal Riley (Solano County Probation), Dr. Zoee Bartholowmew (Behavior Specialist), Orlando Graham (Community Leader), and Ernani Santos (Principal).
