Role in CARE Study
I serve as the site PI for the Santa Barbara Neighborhood Clinics, where we will have the opportunity to offer a resilience-promoting parenting intervention to families who have been screened for ACEs at their well child visit.
Why I'm Excited About CARE
I am so excited to be able to contribute to our understanding of the ways in which resilience-promoting interventions can ameliorate the biological, psychosocial and behavioral impacts of Adverse Childhood Experiences and to understand how best to support these families who have experiences Adverse Childhood Experiences.
