We're an ACEs Aware award recipient!
|
We are thrilled to be selected as the recipient of a $1million grant through the Preventing and Responding to Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE)-Associated Health Conditions and Toxic Stress in Clinics through Community Engagement (PRACTICE) award as part of a third round of funding through the ACEs Aware Initiative.
The goal of PRACTICE is to increase the workforce and services needed for primary care clinics in California to expand and sustain screening and response to Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and toxic stress in local communities. The funding is being awarded to teams that will be led by clinics and will include community-based organizations and Medi-Cal managed care plans. Teams will identify gaps in their communities in care and services and, through a statewide learning collaborative, leverage existing and new sources of state funding to build sustainable capacity to fill these gaps. Our team will include Pacific Clinics, our steadfast partner in delivering integrated behavioral health services through our Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic project, and Santa Clara Family Health Plan, our Medi-Cal managed care partner. We are grateful to the UCLA-UCSF ACEs Aware Family Resilience Network, the Office of the California Surgeon General, the California Department of Health Care Services and the Population Health Innovation Lab for this honor, and look forward to improving the lives of our patients by preventing and addressing the impact of ACEs and toxic stress. |
