Defining Approaches that Support Positive Mental Health in Post‑Secondary Undergraduate Students who have Adverse Childhood Experiences

Posted by School of Social Work on October 11, 2019 in General Announcements

As part of a SSHRC grant, a group of multi-disciplinary researchers from the School of Social Work, Health and Human Performance, Dental Hygiene, and Health Sciences are inviting undergraduate students to participate in a study on evidence-based interventions to promote positive mental health in survivors of adverse childhood experiences. Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) are defined as deleterious experiences in first 18 years of life. A significant body of evidence has demonstrated that such experiences can negatively affect one's mental health across their lifespan. This study seeks to define evidence-based approaches that may act to promote positive mental health in undergraduate students who have experienced significant Adverse Childhood Experiences.​
