Building Resilience: Number Story
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are highly stressful and potentially traumatic experiences that can happen to any of us before we turn 18. An ACE can be a single event. Or they can be an ongoing struggle where our safety, security, trust, or even our very sense of self is threatened or violated.
Parents with ACEs may pass on some ACEs to their kids. Whether going through a divorce, a mental health condition or substance use issue – the reality is that kids face adversity, despite our efforts to protect them.
Knowing our children’s and our own ACE histories can be a catalyst for change. This site provides tools to understand ACEs and to begin to heal.
