Ed Finkel reported this story for the ACEs Connection Network. It's about how One Hope United in Illinois is integrating ACEs education in its work with kids and families. They include a modified version of the ACE questionnaire in their work. 

One Hope United attempts to lead those affected by childhood trauma down a Healing Path.

That’s the name of a three-year-old program that has brought a different approach to helping people with adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). The program operates out of One Hope United’s office in Gurnee, IL, north of Chicago, and three others in the metropolitan area.

“It’s specifically trauma-based treatment, rooted in evidence-based practices,” says Jill Novacek, director of programs for the four Illinois offices of One Hope United.

The program serves children from three through 18 years old. Most have a complex set of ACEs.
