The three health information products that I chose are:
- Infographic
- Blog post
- Radio ad
I decide to target adults who would help build resiliency in children. These adults are not their parents, but other childcare workers. For example, when a child goes to a daycare or school, they may start to "act up" and misbehave. Instead of expelling or punishing the student, the adult should learn why this child is acting in this manner.
In order to learn why the child is acting in this manner, they must consider the ACEs (Adverse Childhood Events) the child has faced. These events may include, but are not limited to: physical violence, mental violence, car accidents, parents' divorce, etc. When these kids don't learn how to build resilience to combat these ACEs, they begin to deteriorate mentally and physically.
The Florida Department of Children and Families (https://myflfamilies.com/service-programs/child-care/) has developed courses for adults to take in order to educate them in how to support children going through ACEs. By being knowledgeable and trained, they can help build a better future for these children.
