| dc.description.abstract | This issue brief offers hope and a way forward so that all children and their families can attain optimal physical, social, and emotional development and well-being. Presented are the latest data documenting the prevalence of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) among children in the United States. ACEs include a range of experiences that can lead to trauma and toxic stress and impact children’s brain development and physical, social, mental, emotional, and behavioral health and well-being (Table 1). There is growing evidence that it is the general experience of multiple ACEs, rather than the specific individual impact of any one experience, that matters.The impact of ACEs extends beyond children and can have far-reaching consequences for entire communities; consequently, this brief also points to strategies that families, caregivers, providers, and communities can implement to reduce the negative health effects associated with ACEs, heal, and help children thrive in the face of adversity. | en_US |
