This 1-hour training raises awareness about how Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and toxic stress can impact children throughout their lifetimes. When exposed to high amounts of prolonged stress it can affect their developing brains and shape how they see, feel, and react to situations for the rest of their lives. Not only that, if left untreated it can lead to self-medicating (drug and alcohol abuse, tobacco use, self-harm, suicide, etc.), and can affect the health of that child as they get older (high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, heart disease, etc.).
While Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) can impact the life of a child – a loving, caring, healthy relationship can offset the damage caused by ACEs. Resilience is a combination of skills learned through healthy relationships that helps us overcome the adversity we have experienced in life.
