The youth you work with may struggle with the traumatic effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACES). Inspiring Dreams Network invites you to learn about ACES, and the impact ACES have on brain development and behavior. ACES often interfere with school success and can negatively impact participation in activities, events, school, relationships, overall wellness, and life outcomes. This ACES training series is intended to help caregivers and adults who serve youth better understand the impact of ACES and to learn some best-practice strategies to help youth and families overcome and prevent the future occurrence of ACES, changing lives in a positive direction.
