Special guest and Topic show - Want to learn more about SCRIPT? Join co-founder, Dr. Debra Warner, tonight at 5 p.m. PST! She will be on the 'Stop Child Abuse Now' show, hosted by Bill Murray on Blog Talk Radio to discuss the Summit on Community Resilience, Intervention, Prevention, and Training (SCRIPT)! In addition, she will be joined by presenters Maria Langi and Charleen Stearns, who'll gather to talk about the many topics being presented in this year's event on Thursday July 20th and Friday July 21st! NAASCA has been a co-sponsor of the FREE conference for many years, and we're happy to announce that the event will be back at the California Endowment of the Arts, a perfect venyue for SCRIPT. More than 60% of the population has experienced at least one adverse childhood experience. Evidence suggests that abuse, neglect and other types of adverse experiences are significant risk factors for later physical and mental health problems including drug and/or alcohol abuse, criminal activity, suicide attempts, domestic violence, cancer and heart disease. The costs to society associated with child abuse and neglect exceed $124 billion per year. Additionally of course, adults also experience abuse and trauma in various ways. Please join the event in Los Angeles if you can but call in to the talk show this evening at (646) 595-2118 to listen and learn! Press 1 to join the discussion and to ask SCRIPT your questions. Thank you. The SCRIPT Team cannot wait to see you all soon! (Join us on Wed, July 12th for part 2 of this episode.)
