Who is it for

Children and young people are amongst the most vulnerable in our society when
it comes to the impact of adverse circumstances on their lives. Adverse
childhood experience can have impacts on the development and mental health of
children and young people that may persist into adulthood and affect their life
chances. These might be personal circumstances such as the death or divorce of
parents or domestic violence, for example, or national and international
disasters. Children and young people affected by such events need support to
strengthen their resilience and empower them to overcome their fears and the
challenges they face.
