Breaking the Cycle of ACEs

March 16th, 1-2pm (EST)

Research has established the link between Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and increased susceptibility for substance use disorders later in life. Too often, inequitable policies aggravate this link, inducing stress in certain communities that undermines community and child wellbeing. This webinar will explore how public health providers can partner with communities to build resilience and break the cycle of intergenerational trauma.

We will discuss:
--Data collection and policy analysis strategies to assess the root causes

of community trauma and toxic stress

--Real-world examples of communities that have successfully used policy

to advance equity and lower the incidence of ACEs

--How to build a coalition of advocates equipped to make their communities

more resilient.

This webinar is intended for community organizers and public

health professionals working to create more equitable communities

where everyone can thrive.

Presenters:
Carolina Gabaldon, IPS Prevention Specialist, San Bernardino County
