Description

Childhood trauma can have serious and long-term implications. Toxic stress is known to harm a child’s growing brain. All too frequently, we observe intergenerational transmission, in which parents who experienced unresolved childhood trauma pass it on to their children.

Join us to learn about reliable research on what constitutes an adverse childhood experience (ACE) and how to measure the impact of that trauma. ACEs hurt people in obvious and dramatic ways, not only throughout infancy, but long into adulthood. It has been claimed that ACEs are the core cause of much chronic disease, most mental illness, and most violence.

The expenses are significant, both physically and psychologically, as well as fiscally and emotionally. The consequences can be severe, including social, emotional, and cognitive damage, the adoption of high-risk behaviors, sickness, disability, and social issues, and premature death.

You will hear about the creative initiatives being taken by organizations and communities to solve these concerns.
