Our own President Leslie discussed social and emotional learning at school.
She noted how kids with adverse experiences often struggle at school. An ACE survey was handed out to members. ACE refers to Adverse Child Experiences that might include childhood abuse, sexual abuse, family isolation, alcohol abuse, mental illness and more. Those scoring over 3 ACEs are considered at high risk. Those with 7 or more ACEs have a higher death rate due to numerous causes including suicide and physical health issues. Adverse experiences affect the brain and students are more likely to engage in high risk behaviors. Pal-Mac has programs available to students and their families to help control some of these issues.
