Military Families Learning Network's Military Caregiving concentration is proud to present the first interview in a four part series covering Adverse Childhood Experience (ACEs).
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) affect all sectors of the American population, and children who experience ACEs are at a much greater risk for exhibiting learning or behavior problems in school, have difficulty forming healthy relationships with peers and adults, and are much more likely to engage in high risk behavior, including drug and alcohol abuse and early sexual behavior (ACE Study, 2012). Research has shown that trauma-informed interventions targeting service providers who work in youth-oriented fields, are both fairly simple to implement and very effective in creating positive change in the lives of youth living with ACEs. This presentation will provide participants with information on ACEs and their related behavior issues and equip participants with simple, but effective tools to minimize the impact of ACEs on children.
