Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Questionnaire

The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Questionnaire is a survey that identifies traumatic or stressful events a person experienced during childhood, such as abuse, neglect, or household dysfunction. It helps understand how these early experiences may impact health and well-being later in life. The questionnaire scores the number of different adverse experiences, which can be linked to risks for issues like mental health problems, chronic diseases, and behavioral challenges. By recognizing these past experiences, healthcare providers can offer better support and develop strategies to promote healing and resilience.
