cross-sectoral partners to align policy, program and practice to
address adverse childhood experiences in the context of adverse
community environments-the Pair of ACEs. Our innovative framing of
ACEs, with the explicit focus on equity and prevention, has
influenced local initiatives, programs, public health practice and
local, state and federal policy. Over the past five years, our
networks have successfully led systems and policy change focused on
addressing long-standing economic, social and health disparities by
partnering with community, integrating service delivery and
building political will for change. Today, our partners are responding to the global COVID-19
pandemic that threatens the health and wellbeing of the communities
we serve. The pandemic has put on full display measurable
inequities along the nation's most fragile fault lines-race,
immigration and poverty. The groundbreaking work of CCR has been
pivotal in influencing public health and child health advocates to
center equity in their efforts to address trauma and building
community resilience. Early Childhood Innovation Network (ECIN) The Early Childhood Innovation Network (ECIN) is a local
