Suzanne Pease holds an M.Ed. and is a Certified Trauma Trainer. She is currently a middle school teacher of at-risk students and the Trauma-Informed Specialist for An Achievable Dream Academy in Virginia. Through her experience of raising three boys through their own adverse childhood experiences(ACEs), Suzanne discovered the science of trauma and toxic stress on the brain. Together with her education experience and her success in guiding her own children through their adversity, Suzanne created ACEs in Education to bring awareness and understanding of the science of toxic stress on our children and in our classrooms and to better equip educators in the matter of Trauma-Informed Care.
" We may not be able to stop the trauma from happening, but we can give students the skills and strategies to manage the intensity, through intentional teaching in a safe, predictable environment" -Kristin Souers, Fostering Resilient Learners
