ACE Interface: Understanding Adverse Childhood Experiences - Building Self Healing Communities
2022-04-20 18:00 - 20:00 UTC | Virtual
Topic: “ACE Interface: Understanding Adverse Childhood Experiences – Building Self-Healing Communities”
Date: April 20, 2022
Time: 6pm-8pm (Eastern Time)
Presenters: Jeff Wittman, MBA, PCAIN Prevention Program Manager and Sandy Runkle-DeLorme, MSW, PCAIN Director of Programs
Description: The ACE Study confirms, with scientific evidence that adversity during development increases the risk of physical, mental and behavioral problems later in life. The ACE Study and other research using the study’s framework have taught us that ACEs are the leading cause of health and social problems in our nation and the most powerful determinant of the public’s health. Building Self-Healing Communities is about investing in the people who have the most at stake—especially people affected by ACEs– so they can be expert leaders of their own community’s change. We live at a time of great hope and promise – the greatest public health discovery of our time is about us. The ACE Study provides a discovery – a common framework and language – that we can use to profoundly improve the health and well-being of our society now and for future generations to come.
Co-Presenter Bio: Jeff Wittman joined PCAIN on March 1, 2021, as our new Prevention Program Manager. Jeff comes to PCAIN with a wealth of experience working with youth and with communities.

Co-Presenter Bio: Sandy is currently the Director of Programs at PCAIN, a Division of The Villages, and has been since 2000.  She has both teaching and training experience, as well as experience working with youth and working in the Child Welfare System.  She received her bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Northern Arizona University, and her master’s degree in Social Work from Marywood University.  She has provided over 1,000 trainings in topics related to child abuse prevention and currently serves on the Children’s Policy and Law Initiative Board of Directors, the Children’s Justice Act Task Force, and the State Child Fatality Review Team.

2022 marks the 45th Anniversary of Prevent Child Abuse Indiana, a Division of The Villages and the prevention education and resources they provide for children and families in our state! Join us this April as we raise funds to support their life-changing and vital work for happy, safe, & carefree childhoods for all!
Matt Breman was the former President of Prevent Child Abuse Indiana’s board, before the organization merged with The Villages. He was a strong advocate of championing all of Indiana’s most vulnerable children. Sadly, Matt died unexpectedly in 2003. Soon after, his widow, Rhonda Yoder Breman, began her involvement with Prevent Child Abuse Indiana and then The Villages when the two merged. This race began as a way to honor Matt and his memory and a way to thank him for the time he dedicated to child abuse prevention.
Today Rhonda is still very involved with The Villages, is a former Board Chair herself, and current member of the Board of Directors.
Please join Rhonda, her two children, and the rest of the Prevent Child Abuse Indiana and The Villages family as we remember Matt and his dedication to protecting all children from abuse and neglect!

No Small Matter - Lunch n' Learn
2022-05-09 11:00 - 13:00 UTC | Virtual
Topic: “No Small Matter”
Date: May 9, 2022
Time: 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
Speaker: Sarah Bailey, M. Ed, IECMH-E®️, Infant Family Specialist, Early Childhood Mental Health Mentor – Policy, Director of Outreach and Sustainability at Infancy Onward,
Mental Health America of Indiana
Speaker Bio:
Description: No Small Matter is a feature-length documentary film and national engagement campaign that brings public attention to this vital question by sharing powerful stories and stunning truths about the human capacity for early intelligence and the potential for quality early care and education to benefit America’s social and economic future. This multifaceted project reveals how our country is raising its youngest citizens, why making the most of this time in their lives is so crucial, and most importantly, what we can do to change the perception of when learning begins. The first major theatrical documentary to tackle this topic, No Small Matter, is designed to kick-start the public conversation about early care and education. The ultimate goal: to produce an entertaining, accessible, and inspiring film that redefines the audience’s understanding of the issue and helps drive it to the top of the political agenda. Or, as one advocate put it, “not just to make a documentary about early childhood education, but to make the documentary about early childhood education.”
Audience: This training is appropriate for parents, community members, educators, and professionals who work with children.
A Survey will be emailed to you after the Lunch n’ Learn. Once you complete your Survey our office will email you the Training Certificate within 12-24 business hours.
Just a reminder that if you register as a couple, each person will need to complete an Survey to qualify for a Training Certificate. If more than one registrant views the training from one computer, the Host will ask couples to type their names in the Chat Box for Attendance purposes.

Topic: “Supporting Wellbeing: An Introduction to Mind Body Medicine”
Date: June 24, 2022
Time: 11:30a-1:00p
Description: Stress is a reality of life, especially during these unprecedented times. In addition to our own personal experiences of stress, we often absorb the stress and trauma of others. Those who work with or care for children and youth are particularly vulnerable. Yet, we often overlook addressing caregiver stress, especially prolonged and toxic stress, as being foundational to supporting our children, youth, families, and communities. Through the lens of Mind Body Medicine, this presentation will provide you with the knowledge and skills to support your own self-regulation and wellbeing, both individually and collectively.

Speaker: Christy Gauss, MSW, LSW, Ignite Wellbeing LLC

Her strengths lie in collaboration, building connections, and big picture thinking.
​Christy lives in Indianapolis with her husband, and they have two grown children. She is an advanced practitioner in Mind Body Medicine. She earned her BA in Political Science from George Washington University and her MSW from Indiana University. Christy currently serves on the boards for The Children’s Policy and Law Initiative and Better Youth Outcomes and believes that to foster wellbeing in our organizations, community and world, we must each begin by healing ourselves.
