Every child deserves a strong start, and that starts with the experiences they have at home, at school, and in their communities. Childhood experiences, both good and bad, shape a child’s developing brain.<\/p>\n

When children face serious adversity without enough support, it can have lasting effects on their health and well-being.<\/p>\n

That’s why it takes all of us to create safe, supportive spaces where children can thrive, no matter what life throws their way.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\tB\u1eaft \u0111\u1ea7u\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n

Children can tolerate severe stress if stable, responsive adult relationships are in place to buffer the negative impact.<\/p>\n

But when children are exposed to prolonged severe adversity, and adults aren’t there to help them cope, their stress systems can over-activate. This “toxic stress response” increases the risk of later health problems.<\/p>\n

How Early Adversity Can Impact Children<\/h3>\n\t\t

A groundbreaking study in the 1990s revealed the powerful relationship between serious, negative events in childhood and people’s physical and mental health in adulthood.<\/p>\n

C\u00e1c Nghi\u00ean c\u1ee9u v\u1ec1 Tr\u1ea3i nghi\u1ec7m b\u1ea5t l\u1ee3i th\u1eddi th\u01a1 \u1ea5u (ACE)<\/a> asked adults about the difficult events they experienced before the age of 18 and then examined their health outcomes later in life.<\/p>\n

Some findings fit with what we might expect.<\/p>\n

For example, people who had experienced abuse or neglect as kids were more likely to have mental health challenges as adults.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But other findings were surprising.<\/p>\n

The realization that the earlier the adversity a person experienced, the greater the
\neffect it had in later life.<\/blockquote>\n

One serious event in childhood seemed to have few or no long-term consequences.<\/p>\n

Health impacts<\/h4>\n

Multiple ACEs increased the risk of health problems in adulthood. For example, children who experienced four adverse experiences were twice as likely to be diagnosed with cancer than those who had no significant experiences of childhood trauma.<\/p>\n

While there is a connection between early adversity and one’s adulthood health, it’s important to note that adversity and long-term health impacts are kh\u00f4ng <\/u>inevitable. There are things we can all do – as individuals, grown-ups, and communities – to prevent ACEs and support healing.<\/p>\n

If you or your child have faced serious adversity, you are not alone. Most people in Maryland have experienced at least one form of adversity by the time they are adults.<\/p>\n

About 1 in 4 Maryland residents have experienced 3 or more ACEs, according to The Maryland State Council on Child Abuse & Neglect.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\t

What Can We Do?<\/h2>\n

The experiences children have early in life can shape their lifelong health. By providing positive experiences, we can buffer the impacts of adverse ones. Think of it like a scale where you’re balancing the positive and negative experiences.<\/p>\n

Create positive experiences<\/h3>\n
