Positive Experiences – Hopeful Science January 28

The Hopeful Science Behind Positive Experiences Across the Lifespan
WEBINAR January 28, 9:30-11:00am
Registration: free!
Presented by Carla Ritz, Managing Director , Montana Institute

One of the most exciting applications of the Science of the Positive is in the developing body of scientific research around positive experiences as a counterbalance to the harmful physical, mental, and behavioral effects of ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) across the lifespan. This ongoing research is transforming how we address the prevention and mitigation of trauma and opening new avenues for increasing community and individual health and wellness.
This session will include:

  • The latest data on the impacts of Positive Childhood Experiences on child and adult health outcomes
  • The emerging research on health impacts of Positive Adult Experiences.
  • Implications for how this emerging prevention science can help bring even greater health and wellbeing to you and the people you serve.
  • Possibilities for advancing applications of the Science of the Positive as a way of preventing and reducing substance use disorder and promoting health and healing for all affected.
