This was an amaxing amount of information and provided excellent resources. I must say it was one of the most challenging courses I have taken on SpeechPathology.com and I needed to listen and review course handouts again to pass the exam which means I still have so much to learn.

Yet again, speechpathology has provided a meaning, impactful, and well-organized webinar on the impact of ACEs. This information is so important for all professionals who interact with students/clients who have been exposed to adverse childhood experiences. I think all school districts should be required to attend Professional Development that focus on ACEs and the significant impact they have on child development, learning, emotional regulation, etc.
