This woman was on PBS last night:
Nadine Burke Harris (born 1975, Vancouver, Canada[1]) is an American pediatrician who is the 1st and current Surgeon General of California since 2019.[2][3] She is known for linking adverse childhood experiences and toxic stress with harmful effects to health later on in life.[4] She is an advisory council member for Hillary Rodham Clinton's Clinton Foundation's Too Small to Fail campaign,[5] and the Founder and former chief executive officer of the Center for Youth Wellness.[3][6] Hailed as a pioneer in the treatment of toxic stress,[6] her work has been featured in Paul Tough's book How Children Succeed.[7]
She talked about a study that informs her work:
In 2008, after reading "The Relationship of Adverse Childhood Experiences to Adult Health: Turning Gold Into Lead," by Vincent J. Felitti, Burke Harris realized that her patients' traumatic experiences were having a negative impact on their present and future health.[12]

Nadine Burke Harris Event
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)
ACE-Aware Nation Conference – The science of ACEs is fundamentally hopeful - Dr Nadine Burke Harris
A Scottish grassroots movement has set itself the goal of Making Scotland the World’s First ACE-Aware Nation. That was the title of a 2-day event held in Glasgow on 25th & 26th September 2018, attended by 2500 people from across the UK and beyond. Hosted by two independent organisations – TIGERS and connected baby – the event brought together some of the leading speakers in Scotland, with the aim of explaining why a focus on relationships is central to preventing and healing adverse childhood experiences (ACEs).
The speakers’ collective voice was strengthened by the contribution of global ACEs campaigner, Dr. Nadine Burke Harris, CEO of the Center for Youth Wellness in San Francisco, USA. In this video, we hear the keynote speech she delivered at the conference. Her presentation explored not only the science of toxic stress, but also ways in which organisations have been putting that science to work creating healing and prevention.
It was an honour to have Dr. Burke Harris as the invited keynote speaker at the Conference. She argues that ACEs are widespread in our population and that every single person deserves to have this information of human biology, in order to help improve the quality of their life. That encouragement reinforces the vision of Scotland being an ACE-Aware Nation. As Dr. Burke Harris says, that is a fundamentally hopeful vision.
