Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are traumatic events occurring before the age of 18.
Evidence shows that ACEs can increase an individual’s risk of developing health-harming behaviours.
ACEs are experienced by many people, reflecting key stressful events from before birth through adolescence. As explored in this report, adversity in childhood and adolescence can become traumatic and injurious to physical and mental health and wellbeing throughout the life course. The lens of ACEs prompts questions over the way we design and deliver services. As detailed in this report, adopting trauma-informed approaches and models of care can help support children, parents and adult survivors of ACEs.
