Building up resilience from ACEs [MessageMedia.co]

Were you emotionally or physically neglected? Emotionally, physically or sexually abused?

There is a name for all of those situations, and Lisa Kruse and Amy Wyant are ready to share their knowledge on it: Adverse Childhood Experiences, or ACEs.

Kruse and Wyant were part of a Brainerd Lakes Cohort which received training on ACEs in early November. Now it’s their job to get the word out to the public.
