On this day, 55 years ago, my father delivered his last speech entitled, ‘I’ve Been to the Mountaintop’. Listen to his words.

Thank you Governor Gavin Newsom Gavin Newsom for investing in early detection and early intervention to reduce ACEs and toxic stress. Early data is showing ACEs Aware is WORKING to improve outcomes for kids exposed to early adversity. Would love to see more states following this example.
