Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) impact not just childhood, but the physical and emotional lifetime health trajectory of its survivors. We often see the impact and are frustrated in our efforts to help. Can anything we do now alter the life course health trajectory of the children and adults who have experienced childhood trauma and bear its scars? Many of today’s leading thinkers say YES. The Perinatal Network of Monroe County and the Monroe County Office of Mental Health will host a week of conferences and workshops highlighted by a Keynote Conference on Wednesday, November 14, 2012. Join us for a a day with America’s leading experts on the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences and how to break the cycle of trauma. Our intention is to give every professional in our community not just the knowledge, but the tools to address the impact of ACES in their own work, with a focus on improving the survivors' physical and emotional health. |
