Description
The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study is otherwise known as “the most important public health study you’ve never heard of.” The study’s results suggest that if our communities can help children and families learn strategies to manage stress and navigate difficult experiences, we can improve mental and physical health outcomes significantly. By learning the importance of asking “what happened to this child?” rather than “what’s wrong with this child?”, participants in this conference will leave with a better understanding of how they can foster resilience in our children through their own actions and through partnering with local community resources to support families.
This conference is jointly provided by Charlotte AHEC and the Rock Hill, SC "#1 Question: Is It Good for the Children" campaign.
