Findings of the ACE Study have had a swift and substantial impact on MCH policy, practice and research. This issue of the journal is intended to provide a forum to enhance knowledge of the Study and its implications across the field. Topics of interest include:

  • The aims and findings of the ACE Study,
  • The implications of the Study and use of Study findings to shape MCH practice in clinical, program and policy settings,
  • The import of the Study in relation to life course theory and the social determinants of health,
  • The strengths and limitations of the Study as a basis for action to improve MCH outcomes,
  • Adoption of a trauma informed approach on an agency or community-wide basis,
  • The strengths and limitations of the Study in relation to efforts to eliminate inequality in MCH health outcomes.
