Adverse Childhood Experiences

Statewide efforts to build an infrastructure based on the lessons from the ACE Study. The premise is that the impact of events in childhood & youth has a correlation to adverse behaviors & health issues later in life. Also, the momentum occurring around trauma-informed care supports the focus on protective factors & resilience. 

The Effects of Childhood Stress on Health Across the Lifespan

Minnesota is working to build new knowledge, establish partnerships, and adapt policies and practices to reduce the prevalence and impacts of early adversity and to promote health and healing across the life span.
