ACEs, Intergenerational Trauma & Stress

This training invites participants to explore the historical and social experiences connected to race and how they shape identity, well-being, and opportunity. Participants will develop a shared understanding of key terms and background, examine the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and trauma within the context of race, and reflect on how lived experiences can affect emotional and physical health.

The session emphasizes the strength and resilience individuals and communities demonstrate in the face of adversity, highlighting protective factors, cultural strengths, and pathways to healing. Through discussion and reflection, participants will discover opportunities for learning, growth, positive change, and meaningful connection that support more compassionate, informed, and equitable practices.

This training is sponsored by United Way of Palm Beach County.
