The basis for a new understanding of what our culture is facing and how to best treat students and teachers dealing with "toxic stress." ACE training will ease the effects of students dealing with crisis.
Imagine the implications if the causes of medical conditions such as heart disease could be linked to adverse childhood experiences, also known as ACEs. That very connection is carefully explored in the movie RESILIENCE, which will sheds light on the effects of early life traumas.
We will also focus on self-help interventions for staff.
