ACE & Trauma Informed Practice Training

Children who are routinely exposed to situations such as domestic violence, mental ill health, alcohol and other substance misuse problems in their homes experience a negative impact which can last well into adulthood. These chronic stress situations are called Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and are often associated with poorer outcomes for children in educational attainment, employment, involvement in crime, family breakdown, and a range of health and wellbeing measures.

The SBNI have developed a suite of online training programmes to raise awareness of adverse childhood experiences and trauma sensitive approaches to practice for staff and volunteers.

Level One Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Awareness Online Training Programme

Audience: For all staff including front end, receptionist, admin, finance, managers and therapists/service delivery staff
