In 2002 we began our childhood trauma initiative.Over the years, we have expanded the scope of our programming to include those with Adverse Childhood Experiences and drug endangered children.
Rebranded as Handle with Care, we are working on expanding this program statewide.
Today, District Attorney Joe Early and I briefed Lt. Governor Karyn Polito, and First Lady Laura Baker on our groundbreaking work in this area.
This meeting brought us one step closer to creating our state-wide DEC Alliance.
