Project Description:

In collaboration with Pinecrest-Queensway Community Health Center (PQCHC), we aimed to address Adverse Childhood Experiences and their impact on children’s development. Our project emerged from the recognition of a knowledge gap in the community about ACEs. Consequently, we focused on the specific programs offered by PQCHC that empowered parents with effective strategies and resources. Our goal was to promote these programs so families could access support and reduce the effects of ACEs.


Short Description:

In partnership with EarlyON, this project raises awareness about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). It equips parents with strategies and resources to navigate challenges, and reduce their impact on children’s well-being.
