NATIONAL, STATE, AND LOCAL DATA

To generate local awareness relevant to your area, the CAHMI created individual state/national comparison fact sheets using 2018/2019 NSCH data regarding the prevalence of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and key child outcomes such as bullying, school engagement, and resilience and flourishing. These fact sheets also include data and information about the prevalence of adults with ACEs, key adult health outcomes, and the mechanisms that link ACEs with health outcomes explained by breakthrough neurobiological sciences. By addressing the ACEs epidemic and tailoring fact sheets for each state, the CAHMI aims to advance policies to catalyze wellbeing across the nation.
