Please join us for this workshop on the NEAR sciences Neuroscience, Epigenetics, Adverse Childhood Experiences, and Resilience
Description: The amazing breakthrough of the Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) study and our new understanding of society & biology reveals powerful secrets we can use to transform the quality and effectiveness of our work. Experience during development whether nurturing or toxic affects the quality of our relationships, self-regulation, health, and school and work performance. This training will provide direct instruction about a cluster of emerging scientific findings that include ACE Study, developmental neuroscience, epigenetics, and resilience research discoveries. Participants will review the ways that toxic stress during development can affect cognition, relationships, health, behavior and patterns of crisis and coping that can affect experiences. Washington Data that illuminates community variation in ACEs, community resilience, and health will be introduced. Participants will explore the implications for this science in their sphere of influence and generate ideas for action that can help to moderate ACE impacts and improve outcomes.
