AN EXCLUSIVE LIVE WEBINAR
The Childhood We Carry With Us: An Overview of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Trauma Informed Care
Hosted by PsychMaven
FRIDAY February 26th
1:00 - 2:00 PM EST
What we experience as children has an effect on the adults we all become. In this brief webinar, we will discuss the research behind certain types of childhood stress or trauma, some of them quite common, known as Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). ACEs have been scientifically proven to significantly impact physical, mental, and behavioral health outcomes for individuals and communities. For example, ACEs are directly correlated to heart and lung diseases, depression and suicide, and addiction and overdose. Understanding ACEs helps us respond to others with sensitivity; ACEs awareness also helps us find compassion for ourselves. Starting with the question, "What happened to you?" rather than "What is wrong with you?" leads to more productive solutions. Please join us for this free 30 minute overview with 30 minutes of Q & A to learn about the groundbreaking ACEs study that launched a paradigm shift, find out your own ACE score and what to do about it, and the benefits of building a trauma-informed community.
