HOPE framework transforms interactions between providers and parents

This paper describes the growing evidence that supports the health effects of positive childhood experiences (PCEs), and uses these insights to promote the HOPE framework: a paradigm shift that will incorporate the identification, celebration, and support of PCEs as an integral part of caring for children and families. The HOPE-informed approach expands current care, shifting from a sole focus on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) toward an additional focus on PCEs
