We hosted the first Adversity and Resilience Research conference in October 2019 with interdisciplinary events and speakers from across the U.S. In June 2024, researchers from CIRCA formed the first International Resilience Coalition, presenting work on PACEs in Japan, the Netherlands and the U.S. to an international audience in Lisbon, Portugal. CIRCA scientists served in a leadership role on a statewide legislative trauma-informed taskforce, founded the Adversity and Resilience Science journal, and continue to innovate by applying the research on trauma treatment and prevention for first responders through a collaborative program with the Oklahoma Department of Health and the CDC (Mindful First Responders). Drs. Hays-Grudo and Morris published the first scholarly book on ACES (Adverse and Protective Childhood Experiences: A Developmental Perspective (APA, 2020), and a book for the public Raising a Resilient Child in a World of Adversity: Effective Parenting for Every Family, published by APA’s Life Tools in 2023.
