Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) don't have to define a life. Healing Futures trains community leaders in evidence-based Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) to deliver FREE trauma-informed support to children, youth, and families nationwide who can't afford therapy.

 

America's Adverse Childhood Experiences Crisis

• 1 billion children globally face violence/neglect yearly

• 16% of US children have 4+ ACEs

• ACEs triple risk of chronic disease, dropout, and/or incarceration

​
