Why positive childhood experiences are important for all children and families
Positive childhood experiences are protective experiences that help heal the brain from trauma and promote healthy mental health in adulthood.
How can we heal from Adverse Childhood Experiences?
Developing a practice that incorporates positive childhood experiences (PCEs) can lessen the lifelong effects of harmful experiences and allows the brain to heal from trauma.
How to start conversations about the HOPE framework
Knowing how to talk about the difference HOPE can make is a key part to spreading HOPE.
How the HOPE framework differs from strength-based and trauma-informed care approaches
HOPE is an impactful framework that can be used on its own and alongside other models like strength-based and trauma-informed care approaches.
Training opportunities to increase your practice of the HOPE framework
The HOPE National Resource Center (NRC) offers training options at all levels, from introductory workshops and courses to advanced certifications.
