In this episode of Crime Time, Inc., the hosts discuss the third of four Reith lectures by forensic psychiatrist, Dr. Gwynne Adshead, focusing on the relationship between trauma and violence. Recorded live at Grendon Prison, a unique therapeutic facility in Buckinghamshire that houses around 200 male prisoners, many serving life sentences for serious crimes, the lecture examines whether trauma leads to violence. Dr. Adshead explores various themes including the Menendez brothers' case, the ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) study, and the biological and psychological impacts of chronic stress. She delves into how early trauma affects brain development and discusses the concept of epigenetics—how trauma can alter gene expression. The podcast also highlights a Q&A session with the prisoners at Grendon, revealing their personal insights and reflections on trauma and behavior. Dr. Adshead emphasizes the importance of protective factors like strong social connections and community support in mitigating the effects of trauma. Additionally, the discussion touches on gender roles and societal expectations in the context of violent behavior. The episode provides a comprehensive look at the complex interplay between trauma and violence, advocating for empathy and rehabilitation over mere punishment.00:00 Introduction to Dr. Gwynne Adshead's Lecture00:23 Grendon Prison: A Unique Setting00:56 The Menendez Brothers Case02:08 The ACE Study and Its Findings03:40 Biological Impacts of Trauma05:14 Psychological Impacts and Mentalizing07:59 Gender Roles and Violence09:08 Q&A Session with Grendon Prisoners10:06 Introduction to Grendon Prison10:16 Unique Approach to Rehabilitation11:00 Challenges and Attrition Rates11:22 Prisoners' Questions and Insights11:51 Impact of Domestic Violence13:17 Gender Differences in Coping15:12 Therapeutic Approaches at Grendon15:40 The Role of Human Connection16:22 Resource Constraints and Future of Prisons17:18 Rehabilitation and Transition18:19 Final Thoughts on Criminal Justice19:41 Conclusion and Call to Action Hosted on Acast.

Steve Carver: Here's the thing about stress, I think it's really important that you have other tools at your disposal to help you de-stress yourself. Whenever a stress happens in your life…there's about a 90 second chemical reaction that happens in your brain. So it's okay to be angry, it's okay to be sad, it's okay to be upset, scared, whatever caused the stress in the first place. That chemical reaction lasts about 90 seconds. Anything longer than that is you staying on the hamster wheel and continuing to perpetuate those feelings. So how do I stop that? So some people say, well, I can't get off the hamster wheel. So I need to distract my mind. For me, I'll do 10 deep breaths. And the first five, I'm like, doesn't seem to be doing anything, right? And then I get deeper and I exhale more and by number 10, I'm thinking only about breathing. And then I realized that I'm not as at DEFCON 5 anymore. I'm still trying to deal with whatever it was that caused me to be stressed, but now I have a clearer mind to come up with a solution that's going to be beneficial to solve the problem or if it's something that I just can't control and there's nothing I can do about it at this moment, me being worked up about it is not helping the problem. So find a way that works for you to distract your mind from the thing that caused you to be stressed in the moment. I know that there are some monumental things that happen in life and in the moment it's very upsetting. But I always take a moment and think, okay, what can I do about it right here, right now in this moment? And too many of us regress to some other trauma in our life where we were a child and we didn't really have good coping skills; so we have a very childlike reaction to that stress. Whereas if we can understand that that's what we're doing and we're no longer there, then we can replace those reactions or those coping mechanisms with something that's more beneficial to you — and again, this takes a little bit of work and it doesn't happen overnight. One of the coping mechanisms I have is a JumpSport trampoline. When I'm at work and something frustrates me or maybe I didn't get good sleep, I go down the trampoline and I run as fast as I can or I put on my headphones and I listen to really loud music and I bounce for about three to five minutes and sure enough, all of a sudden I'm not that stressed anymore and I'm not that upset anymore. Now, the problem didn't go away, I just stopped making it worse than it was, like pouring gasoline on a fire. And I think that is helpful for people — if they can find something for them, and certainly the trampoline is a vehicle and is a fun thing, that distracts you, it lets you get all that energy out. Stephanie: I've heard that there are mental health benefits to rebounding. Is that something that you can talk about? Steve Carver: Sure, let's talk about the health benefits. So I primarily got into this because of the physical aspect of it. So you go from zero gravity when you're at the top of the stroke, where you barely even just barely leave the surface — you don't even have to jump high on it — and then you push down into the trampoline surface and can create exponential gravity. The beauty of that is, on a health level, is that your lymphatic system does not have a pump, so to move lymph through your body, you need two things do that, gravity and movement…doing the fitness trampoline from JumpSport will give you up to five G's of force, so as you compress yourself down to five G's and release to zero gravity, it creates a natural pumping action…10 minutes of exercise will actually move the lymph through your system and detoxify your body while you're working out. So what does that do? What does that mean, really? Well, if I remove all the toxins out of my body very efficiently and I help my body do that, that helps everything else be more efficient. So now my immune system is stronger because it's not bogged down by toxins. My heart, my lungs, anything that has fluid is going to be assisted by that pumping action as well. So you're going to get benefits to your endocrine system and all of all of the other ones that I mentioned. Not to mention that you're going to actually help your heart in this process so it doesn't have to work nearly as hard. So there's just a small list of just the physical health benefits. We have our product in the UCLA Medical Center…they've realized that it produces a lot of your happy hormones. So oxytocin, serotonin, endorphins all get released into your brain while you're bouncing on the trampoline. So as a result of that, you smile and you're happy. So I always tell people, three minutes on the JumpSport is like a cup of coffee. So if you're feeling a little down, your energy is a little low, you get on the trampoline, you bounce on it for three minutes. All of a sudden you're like, I'm wide awake and I have lots of energy and I'm happy again.

We start the year off by talking about sobriety, toxic intensity, cycles of trauma and addiction, and making the choice to turn around family trauma by healing at all costs.Carey Smith Sipp is the Director of Strategic Partnerships at PACEs Connection and a disrupter of multi-generational cycles of trauma and addiction. PACEs = Positive and Adverse Childhood Experiences. Her book, The TurnAround Mom: How an Abuse and Addiction Survivor Stopped the Toxic Cycle for Her Family—and How You Can, Too! was published in 2007.The author of a book on breaking multi-generational cycles of addiction and abuse, Carey was writing about the health implications of what she called “toxic intensity” before learning, in 2000, about adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). A lifelong student of the sciences, Carey is drawn to learn daily about brain development, health, and leadership. With all humility, she calls herself a cautionary tale and a success story of what positive and adverse childhood experiences can do to a human. She is an avid believer in post-traumatic growth, big ideas, and the power of good people working to change the world. She also believes that to disrupt toxic systems, we as adults must learn and share about PACEs science, examine and heal our own trauma, and view every child as being our own. PACEs story: "I grew up in addiction and abuse. When I had children, I vowed they would have a saner, calmer childhood than my own, so I joined a recovery group for family and friends of alcoholics, immersed myself in parenting education, and quit drinking, just in case. Somehow I knew children's brains are wired for peace and calm or for agitation and addiction. In 1996, when I started working on a book about breaking cycles of addiction and abuse, I called the National Association for Children of Alcoholics for resources. In 2000, one of the pieces of information they sent was the ACE Study. I read it and wept. My score explained my health issues; my prognosis was grim. Instinctively, I delved deeper into recovery, spirituality, parenting, exercise, and nutrition. A few years later, hope came when advances in brain science showed the brain has plasticity, the body wants to heal. In 2008 I started contributing articles about PACEs science to a medical information website. Five years later I met Jane Stevens, and five years after that, I was hired at PACEs Connection. My work comes full circle as I write about how PACEs lead to addiction and addiction leads to PACEs, and that PACEs science and trauma-informed communities hold solutions to preventing multi-generational cycles of addiction and abuse."PACEsConnection.comBuy Carey's book.Follow us on Instagram.Check out our bonus YouTube content.Latchkey Urchins & Friends website.Audio mastering by Josh Collins.Song "One Cloud is Lonely" by Próxima Parada.Cover art by Claire Dierksen.

What do Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., The Dalai Lama, and Michelle Obama have in common? It is possible that in their younger lives they were encouraged to attune to the feelings and needs of others to the detriment of themselves. When these personality types are unbalanced, they can prove to be difficult and challenging partners because they become seemingly impossible to get close to. Functioning always from a gut instinct perspective can often result in self-created conflict, chaos, and rigidity. However, because of these very wounds, their search for stability through equality, peace, and improving society on a structural level has brought their ideals to the forefront, creating universal change.Join Kevin and Niseema as they complete this 3 episode journey with a discussion of the "Gut" Triad. The Challenger 8, focuses on challenging the rules and the people in their environment; The Peacemaker 9, lives to bring peace and harmony to their environment; The Reformer 1, focuses on what is imperfect in their environment and seeks to set it right.------------------------------For more information or support contact Kevin or Niseema at: info@thepositivemindcenter.com, or call 212-757-4488.

On this episode of We are Living Healthy Alexis is joined by Dennis and Patricia from Virginia Beach Behavioral Health wellness Services to talk about ACEs, a program aimed to connect with compassion for childhood experiences. Key Takeaways from Alexis chat with Dr. SchreiberWhat does ACEs stand for? Understanding Adverse Childhood Experiences—the ACE Study confirms, with scientific evidence, that adversity during development increases the risk of physical, mental and behavioral problems later in life.How many times have you heard adults say that children are resilient? That they have an innate ability to magically “bounce back” from any situation, regardless of how stressful. Recent work in child development and neuroscience increasingly suggests that children require safe, stable, nurturing relationships and environments to thrive. Evidence shows that stress and trauma, especially when prolonged, can interrupt healthy child development, putting them at risk for lifelong health issues.Dennis and Patricia, helps us to understand ACE's, and how training can help! However, there is agreement among professionals that various important individual, family, and community conditions can support resilience, such as:● Close and stable relationships with competent caregivers or other caring adults● Parents or adults who model resilience● Identifying and cultivating a sense of purpose (faith, culture, identity)● Individual developmental competencies (problem-solving skills, self–regulation, agency)● Social connections● Socioeconomic advantages and concrete support for parents and families● Communities and social systems that support health and development and nurture human capital.

In this podcast, I interview Dave Lockridge, the founder of ACE Overcomers a Center for Resiliency and Trauma-Informed Training. Dave shares a about The ACE Study, the largest study of its kind with more than 17,000 participants. The purpose of the study was to see how stressful and traumatic childhood experiences influence later physical and emotional health. The study observed 10 types of adverse childhood experiences: emotional, physical, and sexual abuse, emotional neglect, physical neglect, domestic violence against the mother, mental illness of a family member, substance abuse in the home, parental separation or divorce, imprisonment of a household member. As your ACE score increases, the risk for the following health problems increases in a strong and graded fashion: alcoholism and alcohol abuse, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), depression, ischemic heart disease (IHD), liver disease, fetal death, illicit drug use, smoking, attempted suicide, unintended pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, partner violence, obesity. Dave specializes in teaching survivors of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) how to understand trauma, so they can better care for themselves while overcoming the effects of ACEs. He also trains businesses about trauma, so they can better care for those who are still suffering from adverse childhood experiences.

Dr. Christine Koh, in her own words, is a "music and brain scientist turned multimedia creative." Christine creates content to help people live better, happier, and with elevated purpose and intention, including the Edit Your Life podcast. She's also someone who grew up with adverse childhood experiences, and has experience in building a family when our family of origin was not the kind of family we want. In this episode we discuss the measurable physiological detriments of toxic stress; the importance of safe, stable, nurturing environments; and most importantly, that it is possible for significant challenges of early adversity to be met once they are no longer cloaked in shame. As Vincent Felitti, co-founder of the ACE Study, explains: “When we make it okay to talk about what happened, it removes the power that secrecy so often has.” Here are links to some of the writing on the topic that we discuss in this episode: Christine Koh: The Adults Who Saved Me And What You Need To Know About ACEs Donna Jackson Nakazawa for Psychology Today: 8 Ways People Recover From Post Childhood Adversity Syndrome Dr. Nerissa Bauer for healthychildren.org: ACEs- Adverse Childhood Experiences NPR.org: Take the ACE Quiz- And Learn What It Does And Doesn't Mean CDC.gov: Adverse Childhood Experiences and follow Christine and her work at christinekoh.com * Leave us a rating or review in your favorite podcast app! * Join us on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok @whatfreshhellcast on Twitter @WFHpodcast questions and feedback: info@whatfreshhellpodcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Part 4 of the interview with Hollie Jeffery unpacks the ACE Study and the 10 risk indicators of childhood trauma. When children are overexposed to trauma, they will feel unsafe and may develop coping mechanisms to try to control their environment. As they grow, this need for control can pour out into close relationships with family or intimate partners, later becoming domestic abuse. While this is not the case for all individuals who choose to abuse their loved ones, many offenders of domestic violence involved with the criminal justice system answer “yes” to more than 2 ACE indicator questions. Hollie explores how complex trauma affects brain development and the ability for us to turn the “survival” part of our brain on and off. Children who are abused and neglected tend to stay in “survival mode” and their ability to problem-solve and think critically is turned “off” due to being in a constant state of fight, flight, freeze or flop (shut down). This inability to switch the thinking part of the brain on and off can have a negative affect the following parts of daily living: • Poor relationship health • Frequent job loss/ inability to maintain employment • Low performance at school or work • Hyper/Hyperarousal • Self-medicating or sleeping often as means of escaping reality… In this section Hollie also shares why advocacy through the power of peer support is a critical factor of healing for those who are still trying to gravitate toward hope. When survivors who are now thriving after abuse have an opportunity to speak life into those still trying to process the truth of their situation, the potential outcome for quality of life dramatically improves. When we understand how ACEs and complex trauma affect our ability to process through regular, everyday situations, we can begin strengthening our level of empathy and support for those who are not functioning at capacity.

The ACE Study is from the early 1990s, where they sampled about 17,000 people, having them take a survey that asked them, "From the ages of 0 to 17, how many of these things happened to you?" And they listed out 10 indicators things like sexual abuse, physical abuse, did you grow up in a household where there was mental illness, did you grow up in a household where there was drug abuse, did you grow up in a household where your parents were separated or divorced, where you saw a mom being treated violently? There were 10 of these, and they would have folks say yes or no to that, and then they would walk away with a score from 0 to 10, 0 meaning no trauma. 10 meaning the most. And what they found, after giving that survey to 17,000-plus people is two-thirds of the people said that they had had at least one of those things, and many of them said many of those things happen to them when they were between the ages of 0 and 17.Key Points Discussed:People that have had trauma tend to respond in a very particular way because they need to create safety for themselves. (2:30)In the program that I ran, my friend looked at me and she said, Well, that's great, but how are you going to transfer that behavior? And I was stopped in my tracks by that statement, in fact, it kept me awake for two weeks. I was waking up in the middle of the night trying to think to myself, she's right, what if we can't transfer that behavior, what good is the work that we're doing. After two weeks of thinking about that question, the answer came to mind, and I think I literally woke up, sat up in bed with the answer, and that's my cliffhanger right there. (3:28)When people have had trauma, they need safety, their brains are actually wired to be on this heightened alert for safety because they haven't had safety. And we see a lot of these behaviors where people fight by yelling or raising their voice or saying obscenities. Or flight, running away. Or freezing. And this is all in service to get people safe. There's a part of the brain called the amygdala. And that's what it does. It's on this alert. Keep me safe. Keep me safe. Keep me safe. (4:06)I ran this program for eight years with kids from the juvenile justice system, and talk about trauma, you're talking about some of the deepest trauma. Lots of people dying, lots of situations where folks are starving, seeing their parents be very physically abused over and over again, I mean all kinds of stuff.

Sex, Love, and Addiction: Healing Conversations for Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Men
Carol Teitelbaum is a Licensed Therapist and has been practicing since 1985. She helps her patients with life issues such as addictions, relationship problems, low self-esteem, self-harm, and men surviving child abuse. She is also the Co-Founder of the Creative Change Conferences, a resource for those experiencing addiction, depression, and who are survivors of child abuse. In this episode, Carol shares her journey and some of the reasons why abuse victims continue the cycle of abuse in their own households. TAKEAWAYS: [2:00] A little bit about Carol and her background. [3:00] Why do abuse victims continue the cycle of abuse when they themselves have been abused? [6:10] When we look back, we don’t see what the true reality was and how small we were at the age of 4-8 years old. We think we were bigger than we actually were and we always try to protect our parents. [6:25] Why don’t boys tell people about what’s going on? [10:55] Abuse and homosexuality. What’s happening there? [13:40] For a survivor, having someone get to know you is the worst thing in the world. [15:30] If a child has one, just one adult in their life who believes in them, they can make it. [18:00] Women are becoming harsher with their children right now as everybody is housed under one roof. [20:00] What is the ACE study? [21:00] There is hope! Many of these men are healing. [23:45] What kind of triggers do survivors experience in adulthood? [30:15] What is the Creative Change Conference about? RESOURCES: Creativechangeconferences.com Email Carol: CarolTeitelbaum@yahoo.com. ACE Study QUOTES: “It’s not about sex, it’s about power. Where are they going to get the most power? Abusing someone who is powerless.” “It’s a come here, go away effect to their partner. I want you but not too close.” “That’s how a survivor feels, if you really know me, you’re going to run away because why would you want me, I’m so damaged. That hurts relationships so badly.” “It’s the first time ever minors make up half of the visitors to the National Sexual Assault Hotline.”
“Adverse Childhood Experiences” (ACEs) are stressful or traumatic experiences, including abuse, neglect, witnessing domestic violence, or growing up with substance abuse, mental illness, and more. Mary Renouf speaks with Dr. BAthy Baldwin-Johnson at Providence Alaska to learn more about how the Ace study is being used to treat children in Alaska.

On this episode, we discuss the ACE Study or Adverse Childhood Experience Study with Dr. Susan Maloney of Edinboro University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Maloney is board certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner and a Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. The ACE Study has been called the “The single most important public health study that most healthcare providers don't know about”. The study revealed the damaging effects of trauma on children, which results in long-term negative health affects, including the startleing statistics regarding a vulnerability to drug and alcohol addiction.
In today's episode, I will be talking with Ann DuPre Rogers, executive director for Resources for Resilience, about how understanding ACE Scores can heal our society and improve our personal well-being. We also touch upon ways to help children experience a mindful body centered meditation to increase resilience. This particular podcast was inspired by the work Melissa Baker, my wife of 18 years, was so passionate about. She had a strong drive to share this information and pioneered its dissemination in and around Asheville, NC where we lived for 10 years. Even in the final weeks of her life, she would brighten at any opportunity to discuss these topics. She has left behind a legacy of powerful professionals in the Asheville area to carry on this profoundly healing work. It is my hope that you discover a way to bring this knowledge to your own community. I was also inspired by all the questions I received from meditation students asking about the value of meditation for children. While I think meditation is fantastic to learn at any age, in our current culture, the trainings and techniques promoted by Resources for Resilience will likely have a more immediate effect on a child's well-being. https://resourcesforresilience.com/
My guest Kimberly Pierce is a medical provider whose life was changed, both personally and professionally, after attending a conference on the damaging effects of childhood trauma and how these experiences predict health issues later in life. She talks about how incorporating a simple screening tool known as ACE (Adverse Childhood Experience), into her practice has dramatically impacted the lives of her patients and inspired her to create the documentary film “The Faces of ACE’s.”
Hip-hop is without question the most influential genre of music and has the power to educate, uplift and shift cultures around the world.

Episode 085: Welcome back to another instalment of Real Health Radio. This week we are looking at the Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) study. It uncovers how trauma as a child can impact on someone’s health and behaviours in later life. And despite the study being nearly 20 years old, too few people know about considering its importance. [powerpress] […] The post Rebroadcast: The Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) Study appeared first on Seven Health.
In this episode, Tammy Austin, a mental health counselor in Orlando, Florida, shares some great insight and information as to what we can do to help those who are affected by mental health, spread awareness, and prevent those who are ill from harming themselves. Additionally, Austin talks about some statistics, the various genres of music and how that factors into higher suicide rates, drug use, and becoming aware of and listening to your body's signs of exhaustion before it's too late.Mental health has reared its ugly head within many of our lives. It has affected those that don't deserve it and has caused many of those we love to leave forever, including Chester Bennington, Avicii (Tim Bergling), Anthony Bourdain, Kate Spade, and more. It's an ugly illness and it often feels like there's simply nowhere else to go. That's not true.Resources discussed in the show:Journey's End Counseling7 Mindful Organizations For Musicians & Their Mental HealthCountry Music Is Linked To Suicide (Yes, Really)The Untold Epidemic: Mental Illness in the Music IndustryMusic to die for: how genre affects popular musicians' life expectancyQuick links:1:32: About Tammy Austin2:13: What is mental health?

Recently I have been researching the fascinating field of childhood trauma and uncovered an interesting link between adverse childhood experiences and Hashimoto’s disease. One of the studies I discovered came out of a large, important public health study, The ACE Study, but it focused specifically on cumulative childhood stress and autoimmune disease in adults. What are adverse childhood experiences? Adverse childhood experiences, or ACEs, are experiences that expose individuals under the age of 18 to childhood traumatic stress. These experiences include physical, emotional or sexual abuse; witnessing domestic violence; growing up with household substance abuse, mental illness, parental divorce, and/or the incarceration of a household member. Who was studied? A group of 15,357 adult Kaiser Permanente health maintenance organization members available for follow-up through 2005 was involved in this study. They were selected from the ACE Study, which was performed from 1995 to 1997. These individuals are interesting because while many studies have looked at inner-city poor people of color, this study’s participants were mostly white, middle and upper-middle class college-educated San Diegans with good jobs and great health care. This highly educated population was made up of 40 percent college graduates. Of the remaining individuals, 36% had some college education, 17% were high school graduates (i.e., they had 12 years of education). Only 7% had not completed high school. What did they measure? The study authors looked at the data from the ACE Study and created an ACE Score that included eight types of interrelated and co-occurring exposure to childhood adversity to measure cumulative childhood traumatic stress. So, the greater the number of adverse experiences, the higher the score. The ACE Study Questionnaire is very simple and includes the following 10 questions. “While you were growing up, during your first 18 years of life: 1) Did a parent or other adult in the household often … Swear at you, insult you, put you down, or humiliate you? or Act in a way that made you afraid that you might be physically hurt? 2) Did a parent or other adult in the household often … Push, grab, slap, or throw something at you? or Ever hit you so hard that you had marks or were injured? 3) Did an adult or person at least 5 years older than you ever… Touch or fondle you or have you touch their body in a sexual way? or Try to or actually have oral, anal, or vaginal sex with you? 4) Did you often feel that … No one in your family loved you or thought you were important or special? or Your family didn’t look out for each other, feel close to each other, or support each other? 5) Did you often feel that … You didn’t have enough to eat, had to wear dirty clothes, and had no one to protect you? or Your parents were too drunk or high to take care of you or take you to the doctor if you needed it? 6) Were your parents ever separated or divorced? 7) Was your mother or stepmother: Often pushed, grabbed, slapped, or had something thrown at her? or Sometimes or often kicked, bitten, hit with a fist, or hit with something hard? or Ever repeatedly hit over at least a few minutes or threatened with a gun or knife? 8) Did you live with anyone who was a problem drinker or alcoholic or who used street drugs? 9) Was a household member depressed or mentally ill or did a household member attempt suicide? 10) Did a household member go to prison?” If the answer was yes to any of these questions, the respondents were allocated one point. Next, the authors looked at those scores and compared them with the risk of 21 different autoimmune diseases that resulted in hospitalization. These illnesses included Graves’ disease, diabetes, irritable bowel syndrome,
What is the ACE Study? It's the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study; from 1995-1997 the study gauged long-term health impact of people who experienced a variety of types of traumas as children. Dr. Hanscom and I talked about this on last week's episode but I realized that many people were not aware of this study. I also talk through your path out of chronic pain. How did I do it? How can you do it?

Tonight's special guest is Angela Carson from Saul Paul, Minnesota, a sexual assault nurse examiner and survivor. October is Domestic Violence Awareness month. NAASCA always presents shows and information during this time that highlights the need to come to terms with such criminal behavior. Among other things Angela will talk about her upcoming conference on October 27th, “Behind Closed Doors” - A Deeper Look into Domestic Abuse, Sexual Assault, and the Effects of Trauma. She was herself in an abusive relationship and will address how it affects children from the standpoint of her own son's experiences, and how it impacted their entire family. As a sexual assault nurse examiner, Angela understands the effects that childhood sexual abuse and trauma has on adulthood. Angela is founder of Saving Grace, a non-profit that provides education and promotes awareness about domestic abuse, sexual assault, and the effects of trauma. They aim to help decrease the Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) Study scores for children. The study is a collaboration between the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and Kaiser Permanente's Health Appraisal Clinic in San Diego. The CDC says, "The ACE Study findings suggest that certain experiences are major risk factors for the leading causes of illness and death as well as poor quality of life." They go on to explain the ACE Study Pyramid, "The ACE Study takes a whole life perspective, as indicated on the orange arrow leading from conception to death."
Rick Murdock, ACE Initiative Grant Coordinator Tune in this week to hear about the ACE Study from Rick Murdock, ACE Initiative Grant Coordinator for @Michigan Association of Health Plans. The Adverse Childhood Experiences Study (ACE) is a research study conducted by the American health maintenance organization Kaiser Permanente and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Participants were recruited to the study between 1995 and 1997 and have been in long-term follow up for health outcomes. Rick discusses how the toxic stress that children feel and the impact it has on brain development and their ability to deal with issues within their environment and future issues with healthcare. "65% of children in MI have experienced an ACE".
SEG 2 NEWS UPDATE WITH MOLLY, THE ACE STUDY, CELEB TRASH TALKIN
WHEN ACES HIGH IS A BAD THING: ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES There was a time when people believed that children are resilient and that if something bad happened to them, they would just be able to adapt and grow up and get on with their lives. Besides, there weren’t that many traumatic things that could happen to kids anyway. Then the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study revealed a major problem with that thinking. Turns out there are multiple traumatic experiences that can and frequently do, happen to children and they commonly lead to adults with mental problems, chronic diseases, and who are victimized and victimizers. In the nearly 20 years since the ACE Study came out, how has the information been used and adapted; how have policies changed; and do we see courts, institutions, organizations, and therapists who have changed policies and procedures because of this astounding research? Vincent J. Felitti, MD, Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of California, Senior Editor of the Permanente Journal, advisor to numerous professional organizations and associations, and one of the two principal investigators of the ACE study will share with us how the study came about, what it revealed, and how it has or has not changed the way we care for children. Joining him will be Jane Ellen Stevens, founder and publisher of the ACEs Connection Network, focus on research about adverse childhood experiences, and how people are implementing trauma-informed and resilience-building practices based on that research.

These experiences range from abuse to the incarceration of a parent or guardian. One of the largest investigations ever conducted to assess associations between childhood maltreatment and later-life health, the ACE Study has helped move the dialogue from questions of What's wrong with you? to questions of What happened to you?Mylinda Ogundipe, MPA, serves as Program Administration Director for Prevent Child Abuse North Dakota. She was recently appointed to the national Equity Leaders Action Network, which addresses issues of inequity based on race, ethnicity, language, and culture in ou early childhood state systems.

With Wes Bertrand and Matt Amberson Discussed Today: Review -This study is a great way to introduce the importance of childhood experiences to our lives. -ACE shows clearly that what happens affects our later years. -Childhood treatment is important to the health of the individual. -Two thirds of us have some ACE but all of us are subject to counterproductive childhood experiences. -What affects us is what was done to us but also what wasn't done. -We need touch, play, nurturing to thrive. -These affect us in a continuum from addiction to smaller irrational behaviors. -ACE is great to show the correlation but there is a whole lot more on the continuum. -ASK because we ACT. -Bias to sickness, abuse will affect our lives unless we do something about it. -Understanding our childhood is important to understanding ourselves, our relationships, community, society, history and our future. -Relationships friends, mate, children how we are triggered and subconsciously communicate trauma. Common Psychological Wounds (Gerlach) Growing up in a low-nurturance childhood seems to promote two or more of these: 1) A disabled true Self, which causes a mix of... 2) Excessive shame and guilt, and... 3) Excessive fears, and ... 4) Significant reality distortions, and... 5) Excessive trust or distrust 6) Difficulty feeling, empathizing, and bonding (attaching to / caring about / loving) other living things.

Tonight's special guest is Barry Goldstein, an expert in Domestic Violence issues of child abuse. He does workshops and provides judicial and other trainings regarding domestic violence particularly related to custody issues. He also serves as a consultant and expert witness. Barry joins us to explain what is the problem around child sexual abuse, and what is the solution to the crisis. "I have worked in the domestic violence movement since 1983. I was an attorney for thirty years until my license was suspended in retaliation for exposing an abusive judge," Barry explains. "Since then I have worked full time as a domestic violence author, speaker and advocate." He is the author of "Scared to Leave, Afraid to Stay," co-editor of "Domestic Violence Abuse and Child Custody" with Mo Therese Hannah and co-author with Elizabeth Liu of "Representing the Domestic Violence Survivor." His newest book, due out in October, is "The Quincy Solution: Stop Domestic Violence and Save $500 Billion," and he serves as Co-chair of the Child Custody task force for the National Organization for Men against Sexism (NOMAS). He'll also want to discuss some of the findings of the Ace Study. Barry can be reached at: BarryG78@aol.com
