Register to attend the webinar here: https://register.gotowebinar.c.../5575033413956025858

Free Webinar With Lowell Johnson, ACEs Resiliency Coalition; Emily Clary, Minnesota Communities Caring for Children

January 18th, 9:00-10:30 a.m. CT

Description: The Adverse Childhood Experiences Study (ACE Study), released in 1998, confirmed that early adversity in childhood increases an individual’s likelihood for negative health, mental health, and social outcomes later in life. The ACE Study found that most people experience at least one of the 10 Adverse Childhood Experiences that were studied. Emerging research on resilience reveals that there are protective factors that individuals & families, communities, and systems can adopt to mitigate the harm of ACEs.   

Community and state leaders in Washington State were early-adopters of NEAR science (Neuroscience, Epigenetics, ACEs, and Resilience) and its implications in a community & state context.

This webinar will provide a: 

  • High-level overview of the ACE Study
  • Brief timeline that illustrates how Washington State champions used NEAR science to inform local and state policy to augment work with children and families
  • Examples of three communities that developed a local response to reduce ACEs & build resilience
  • And 6 key Lessons Learned from Washington

Is this webinar going to be archived on the web? Definitely something I would like to see and possibly see with my small group of trauma community building friends in my new home.   However, I have a meeting with our county child welfare organization at the same time as this webinar. 

Thanks
