More about the Program:

This workshop will build a foundation for Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) knowledge and the effects of ACE on long-term health outcomes of adults.  Participants will have the opportunity to self ACE score to understand the survey, reflect on potential triggers that may present in the workplace, and develop compassion for those experiencing high ACE scores.  Building on the foundation of ACE knowledge, the workshop will examine the relationship between stress and resilience, introduce self-care tools to increase resilience, and tools to develop a personal resilience plan.
