The EmbrACE Program - Adverse Childhood Experiences Matter

The EmbrACE program helps people deal with the long-term effects of tough childhood experiences, called Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs).

 

Many people don’t know what a big effect ACEs can have on their lives. EmbrACE focuses on important parts of life like the body, mind, feelings, relationships, and future goals. By working on these areas, the program teaches people to understand and change patterns that might come from their past, supporting healing and strength.

 

Even though we can’t change what happened in childhood, programs like EmbrACE provide ways to handle the effects, lower the chances of mental and physical health problems, and build healthier relationships, planning and reactions, leading to a brighter and more positive future.

​

This seven-week program is offered year-round. For more information about the program, including session dates and registration details, please speak with your provider or contact the program coordinator at sarora@mentorclinic.ca.
