Nine stories of communities, both large and small, engaged in the work of preventing/treating trauma and promoting resilience, are profiled here. These stories include the inspiration, the vision, the key ingredients that are bringing forth the emerging ideas, promising approaches and flourishing models.

These stories provide specific, richly detailed examples of how different communities have approached the challenge of responding to ACEs and fostering resilience. They discuss challenges and obstacles, mis-steps and lessons learned, “aha” moments and successful outcomes. These stories will be updated as they each further their work and new community stories will be added.
