Jacqueline Miller is the founder ofHealthy Actions Intervening
Responsibly (H.A.I.R.). Since August 2018 she has conducted trainings on
local and national platforms to raise the awareness of "Adultfication"
on children. To date, 5,000 international professionals have participated in Healthy
Actions' trainings on adultification. She shares her knowledge and
expertise on the impact domestic violence and sexualization has on
children’s health, understanding trauma and adverse childhood
experiences, and the impact adultification has children’s lives and
well-being.
Through story-telling, audiences learn about how my “story” unfolds in
three dimensions of the gender-based violence movement and the
groundbreaking study on adultification and the erasure of black girls'
childhoods. As a trainer and facilitator, I provide a framework for
building resilience with youth and communities.
Resilience is responsible for the development and construction of the 28
years of work experience that I hold within the gender-based violence
movement.
Not only do I have "lived experience", but also over 28 years of work
experience in the field. I am often chosen to speak, train, and
facilitate because of my expertise. I was the survivor speaker at the
2018 Family Violence Prevention and Services Act (FVPSA) and got a
standing ovation at the end of my presentation.
