The purpose of the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Resilience Summit is to convene local, state, and national leaders committed to understanding the research, practice, and policy implications about ACEs to create a paradigm shift within healthcare, mental health, and child- and family-serving systems in Arkansas.
Part of raising awareness about the issues that affect children and families is recognizing organizations hard at work within their communities and beyond to improve the lives of children and families. This recognition honors those making a difference and encourages them to continue while inspiring others to do good work.
The PACEs Resilience Award was established in 2023. It recognizes a local 501c3 non-profit organization addressing adverse childhood experiences, creating or supporting positive childhood experiences, and contributing to building resilience for children and families in Arkansas. If you know an Arkansas-based non-profit that embodies this criteria, please complete the nomination form below.
The organizational recipient of the PACEs Resilience Award will be selected by members of the ACEs & Resilience Summit planning committee and will receive a portion of sponsorship proceeds.
Nominations are closed. Congratulations to our 2024 winners!
