What are ACEs?

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are traumatic events and life situations experienced by kids which can lead to chronic health conditions, as well as a range of adverse outcomes including lower lifetime educational attainment and lost earning potential in adulthood. The good news is that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says even a small reduction in ACEs could result in positive and lasting impacts — and that's where the AmeriHealth Caritas Foundation fits in.

Preventing and addressing ACEs is our goal

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that ACEs cost an estimated $748 billion each year in the United States, Canada, and Bermuda.[1] However, ACEs are preventable; and doing so can have a major impact on the social determinants of health.
The challenge in prevention lies in the fact that ACEs can be caused by a number of different factors and take various forms. Some contributing factors include:

  • Personal traits and experiences
  • Parents and the family environment
  • The community environment
