Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are potentially traumatic experiences that occur during childhood that can negatively influence health across the lifespan. ACEs include measures of abuse, neglect, household dysfunction, and other forms of adversity that can contribute to negative health outcomes in adolescence and later life.

Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs) are positive experiences during childhood, including having safe, stable, nurturing relationships and environments.
