The social sector in Alberta needed an evidence-informed way to screen for Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). They came to PoliyWise to review the existing tools and make recommendations.
Organizational resilience has long been a staple of business planning. Tools and strategies exist to serve the private sector, which rely on big budgets and plentiful resources. Nothing was available that considered the unique strengths, opportunities, and circumstances of the social-serving sector. PolicyWise and Calgary Urban Project Society (CUPS) saw an opportunity to address this gap.
We have joined organizations across Canada in signing an urgent call to action for our Prime Minister and all elected officials to put Children At The Heart of Canada’s pandemic recovery plans.
