Adverse childhood experiences, also known as ACEs, are traumatic events that can have a lasting or negative impact on a child.
According to the CDC, roughly 60% of adults surveyed across 25 states reported having experienced at least one type of ACE. And nearly 1 in 6 reported they had experienced four or more types of ACEs.
Some examples include: living with someone who has an alcohol or a drug problem, emotional, physical or sexual abuse and neglect.
