ACEs
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are stressful or traumatic events, including abuse and neglect. ACEs are strongly related to the development and prevalence of a wide range of health problems throughout a person's lifespan. Research has demonstrated a strong relationship between ACEs, substance misuse and behavioral problems.
