The Understanding ACEs: Building Self-Healing Communities presentation provides information about the ACE study, along with neurobiology that explains why ACEs impact people’s lives, and what we can all do to dramatically improve health and resilience for this and future generations.
The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study findings represent a paradigm shift in human understanding of the origins of physical, social, mental, and societal health and well-being. We now know that leading causes of disease and disability, learning and productivity problems, and early death have their roots in the cumulative neurodevelopmental impacts of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs).
Building Self-Healing Communities
is investing in the people who have the most at stake—especially people affected by ACEs– so they can be expert leaders of their own community’s change. As we serve our neighbors, in ministry and in the workplace, it is important for us to develop healthy and safe environments that are trauma-informed. The ACE Study provides a discovery – a common framework and language – that we can use to profoundly improve the health and wellbeing of our society now and for future generations to come.
