[cid:image003.jpg@01D3EDF2.62F07270]A groundbreaking public health study
discovered that childhood trauma leads to the onset of many of the health and
social challenges faced by those in our communities. Adverse childhood
experiences (ACEs) - abuse, neglect, a mentally ill caregiver, drug- or
alcohol-addicted family member, incarcerated household member, domestic
violence, loss of parent/divorce - harm children's developing brains so
profoundly that the effects continue to impact their lives as they become teens
and adults.
The more ACEs a person has, the higher their ACE Score, and the greater their
risk for long-term consequences. In fact, the study showed that ACEs are the
most basic and long-lasting cause of health risk behaviors, mental illness,
social malfunction, disease, disability, healthcare costs, and early death.
But there is hope for healing! Attend this workshop to understand Adverse
Childhood Experiences and learn a new way to serve our library patrons... this
new way is called "Trauma Informed Care".
