You’ve heard about it. Now come see it.
RESILIENCE: THE BIOLOGY OF STRESS & THE SCIENCE OF HOPE chronicles the birth of a new movement among pediatricians, therapists, educators, policy makers, and communities who are using cutting-edge brain science to disrupt cycles of violence, addiction and disease.
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to see Resilience–a documentary that clearly and succinctly describes Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and their impact. ACEs are associated with alcoholism, drug use, suicide, domestic violence, and more. Resilience chronicles how innovative research is being used to both prevent ACEs and mitigate their effects. The screening will be followed by a dynamic conversation about how we can create a trauma-informed community for Kalamazoo’s children and families.
