A lived experience, strengths-based approach to understanding the connection between early life experiences and later life outcomes. Facilitated by Mary-anne Hodd.
Tickets cost: £50 for non-members
Through Mary-anne’s personal ACEs journey, you will gain insights into protective factors and compensatory measures, relational healing, and therapeutic care approaches that prioritise the child’s voice and potential for positive change.
You’ll hear a balance of lived experience and theoretical perspectives on a strengths-based approach to ACEs, focusing on individual and collective strengths rather than deficits.
There are just 30 places available for this Live Classroom so book early to secure your place!
