Between Cork and Belfast, Ireland will have seen an unprecedented amount of trauma speakers, all world specialists, and we hope that this will transform the nation. But although science confirms these findings on an almost daily basis, this information is not new as the ACEs have been in the public domain for the last 20 years. There is therefore no need to re-invent the wheel.
With the launch of < ACEs-in-Ireland > we hope to bring the best and most relevant facts and to soften the hearts. It is time to tap into the legendary Irish qualities of charity and compassion and put them to use for the people on this land.
Let us start with the < GOT YOUR ACE SCORE** tab > of the < AcesTooHigh > website - see Title Image and LINK below
This official website is the home of < Adverse Childhood Experiences > and the ACE Score questionnaire** with all the explanations about its origin, all the data and statistics. For the evidence-based enthusiast, lots of scientific articles. And hundreds of messages of validation in the many Comments found after the ACE Score.
**ACE Score questionnaire : you may wish to add a question specific to you and Ireland, if you feel that it does note appear on the list. For example adoption, institutional abuse, women’s rights, conflict-related trauma….etc.
