Do you find it difficult to talk with families and communities about the adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) study and its relationship with substance misuse? If so, you are not alone.

The workshop will offer examples of evidence-based strategies and promising community practices that promote healthy youth development and prevent substance misuse.
