The opening remarks for this conference were live streamed on Facebook. Here is the link. https://www.facebook.com/CCSA....2MkbZQuM_qF4fCSvuwuw This is a good indication of the state of the ACEs movement in the Canadian establishment.

I'm also very excited to find out who the 3 Nova Scotians that will be attending are. I hope we can collaborate in the future.

ACEs and Their Significance in Substance Use and Addiction Early childhood experiences are important contributors to health outcomes across the lifespan. Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), defined as negative, stressful, traumatizing events that occur before age 18, can increase the risk for negative health outcomes, including mental illness and addiction.
