Since the original ACE Study was published in 1998, the challenge to the medical, social services, legal, and policy communities has been how to prevent the occurrence and/or recurrence of these and other adversities, given the poor health outcomes with which they are associated. Understanding the root causes of some of these experiences, and developing a prevention framework around those experiences, helps to better target interventions for vulnerable children and families. Many attempts have been made to establish valid, reliable detection methods with targeted screening of patients and families that can then be coupled with proven evidence-based interventions to reduce the long-term negative outcomes from these childhood adversities. These interventions include a number of different approaches, including home visitation programs, positive parenting programs, enhanced medical homes, and community-based interventions. |
