Personal Statement

Hi there! I'm Dana. Working as an inner-city community organizer for over 25 years, I'm passionate about integrating PACEs Science individually, organizationally, and collectively. Having facilitated training  across sectors locally, regionally, and nationally for several years, I'm humbly honored to support thousands of individuals deepening their knowledge and practical applications of PACEs Science where they live, work, pray, and play. I'm grateful to support your healing-centered journey and am very excited to learn from, share with, and engage together as we humanize our spaces together.
