Famous for her TedTalk Nadine Burke Harris is at the forefront for research around ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences). Essentially having a high ACEs score can have serious health effects later in life due to the body being in a constant state of stress. Some other researchers support that emotional regulation is a good indicator that children can be healthy and successful despite their ACEs score. At the most basic level researchers are showing that supporting the child or adult through emotional regulation is the best way to help them function. It blows my mind to think that they way we are supporting these people is so low tech. Growth mindset, mindfulness, and socio-emotional awareness are what research shows are most helpful to support individuals. Fortunately the CDC recognizes that ACEs are a growing problem are are publishing literature to educate the public. Their strategies include: parenting classes, mental illness/substance abuse support, as well as social support for low income families. CAMERON, L. D.; CARROLL, P.; HAMILTON, W. K.

Little by little I think we are making progress! One day I hope it will be the norm.

i believe there could be a connection between our research topics. From what I have been looking into it seems that the higher a students ACE score is the more anxiety they develop as they mature. It makes sense and it seems like we need to figure out a way to address the needs of students who have higher ACE scores as early as possible to prevent further trauma from developing.
