This white paper from Iowa ACEs 360 provides research on the stress Iowa women are experiencing during and shortly after pregnancy and emerging best practices to reduce the risk of childhood trauma starting in the prenatal period. Mid-Iowa Health Foundation supported the launch of Nine2Thrive featured here.
Iowa ACEs 360 provides research, tools, and a network to empower you—and our entire state—to take informed actions that help all individuals heal from trauma and thrive for generations to come. Working as a coalition, we research the problem, test new solutions, identify best practices, and advocate for system changes to address incredibly complex challenges related to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs).
