A statewide initiative sets in motion to build stronger families and thriving children to prevent adverse childhood experiences.
An adverse childhood experience (ACE) is a traumatic event that takes place in a child's life before the age of 18 that harms their developing brains and bodies where the effects show up decades later.
Arizona is said to have the highest rate in the country of children who have experienced two or more ACEs.
