Perhaps I shall do some checking. Unless you're aware of something somebody else is already working on?

In peace, Shelley

Have just posted up my `Why a PhD in Politics is interested in the ACE Study!' so thank you again for your encouragement on this. Jane has also made contact with me (and provided the details for posting!) I am delighted to make her acquaintance.

Warm regards,

Pam S.

Since your visit to Walla Walla, many positive things have happened for Lincoln High School. It has been a pleasure getting to know Jane, she has been a great resource. I'm gaining in my understanding of ACE's and I am getting better at applying my knowledge. You are such a blessing to be willing to get out there and encourage us to put the knowledge to practice. I will forever be greatful for your compassion and calling to broaden the awareness of ACE's, so that we can serve our cliental with the dignity and respect they so deserve. God Bless You, Jim Sporleder

Has there ever been a correlation between ACE scores and socioeconomic status? I am wondering whether SES may be in fact a proxy for ACE scores. My hypothesis is that high ACE scores lead to entrapment of people at a lower level of economic success.

The documentary continues to spread far and wide, long after I've gone on to write more books about very fun things! I continue to speak on healing and will probably never shut up about that. I created a page for teachers, parents and therapists to download viewing guides for free as well.

Best,

Howard

Good to talk to you again. It looks like you have been busy putting this website together. As usual it is a first class job right down to the great picture you have posted.

Let's make sure we stay in touch,

Bernie
