Handouts

This infographic aims to create a common language and identify points along the path to a just society. Use this resource to gauge where you are, where you want to be, and what’s needed to get to the next level of integrating practices and policies based on the science of positive and adverse childhood experiences (PACEs). You can use the tool as a starting point for conversations and actions to accelerate the PACEs science movement in your community as you work to prevent and heal trauma and help individuals, families, organizations, systems, and communities—our world—toward reaching a just society, where all people flourish.

We have also created a chart (available in English) with details about the experiences and interventions that fall under each of the categories: trauma unaware, trauma aware, trauma informed, PACEs informed, healing centered, and just society.
