Adverse Childhood Experiences National and State Level Prevalence (Child Trends Research Brief, July 2014)

Former Member 8/22/144:41 PM

KEY FINDINGS

Economic hardship is the most common adverse childhood experience (ACE) reported nationally and in almost all states, followed by divorce or separation of a parent or guardian. Only in Iowa, Michigan, and Vermont is divorce or separation more common than economic hardship; in the District of Columbia, having been the victim of or witness to violence has the second-highest prevalence, after economic hardship.

This is really interesting information! I'd be curious to know more about the demographics of the random sample as well as location. Did the phone numbers include cell phone numbers or only landline or a combination? 100% of the families we serve in our local HFA program only utilize cell phones and many times they are only able to communicate via text as that is much less expensive.
