DR. FELITTI ADDRESSES ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCE (ACE) FACTORS WITHIN LOCAL SERVICE DELIVERY SYSTEM
Dr. Vincent Felitti, primary researcher for the Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) study, was in Lakeport on June 16 to provide updates on his reasearch and assist our community with addressing ACE factors within the service delivery system.
It is well established that early adverse experiences can contribute to conditions such as obestiy, street drug, prescription drug, alcohol and tobacco addiction as well as poorer health throughout the life cycle.
