Learning Objectives:
Participants will learn how Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) has a direct impact on long-term workforce development. The presentation will show how resources were used to build a Trauma Informed and Responsive Policing Approach to reduce the impact of adverse childhood experiences including partnerships with school officials and other non-profit organizations to collaborate and support youth and help create an environment for them to build resiliency. A similar model can be developed for the business community to improve overall employee productivity and hiring opportunities.
Methodology:
The presentation will include an overview of the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study and clips from the film, “Resilience: The Biology of Stress and the Science of Hope”.
The presentation will explain how in a large majority of cases, the root cause of substance abuse, domestic violence, and other criminal behavior can be traced back to significant amounts of toxic stress from adverse childhood experiences.
