Early adversity changes a person. There are biological, even epigenetic, changes that happen to these young people, and we might not see the chronic disease effects of that trauma for 20 plus years.
Ever wondered how early life experiences shape our health and education? In this episode of 'Arkansas A.W.A.R.E.', hosts Betsy Kindall, Nicole Fairchild, and Dr. Stacy Moore dive into the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study (ACES). This groundbreaking research reveals the lasting effects of childhood trauma on both physical and mental well-being. From emotional and physical abuse to household substance use and mental illness, the study uncovers how these early adversities can lead to chronic diseases later in life.
But it’s not all doom and gloom. The hosts also share practical strategies for building resilience and creating trauma-informed classrooms. Whether you’re an educator, parent, or just curious about the long-term impacts of childhood experiences, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable tips. Tune in to learn how understanding ACES can help foster a supportive and nurturing environment for all children.
