Cendie Stanford, M.S., M.Ed
Much bigger than her 15/15 ACE score
That's 15 of 15 on the expanded ACEs Matter survey — and 10 of 10 on the standard ACE survey.
Immersed in the insights of childhood trauma research, Cendie found a resonance with her own life journey, sparking a career dedicated to translating and simplifying this research for universal comprehension.
“I act with urgency. I raise the voices from the pages of the research that our tax dollars paid for. I couple that with the stories of the lived experience survivors I meet — that’s what I do and you could do it too.”
