Location: Broadmoor Improvement Assoc., 3900 Gen. Taylor St., 2nd floor, New Orleans, New Orleans

The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study is one of the largest investigations ever conducted to assess associations between childhood maltreatment and later-life health and well-being. The study is a collaboration between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department of Preventative Medicine at Kaiser Permanente in San Diego, CA. This presentation will provide an explanation of the neurobiology that explains why and how trauma and ACE’s impact our lives so powerfully. We will explore the ACE Study data and its implications for ways we might become key players in creating sustainable change.
