Second Wednesday Webinars
The Dibble Institute® offers a monthly FREE webinar on various topics related to healthy relationships for youth, teens, and young adults.
From Adversity to Resilience:
A Framework for Hope
This webinar explores the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and the protective power of Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs) in shaping long-term health and well-being.
Participants will learn about the original Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) study, the Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs) study, the 4 Building Blocks of the HOPE Framework, and how we can foster healing and resilience.
This session provides both foundational knowledge and practical strategies for applying a trauma-informed, resilience-focused approach in professional and community settings.
Objectives: Participants will be able to:
- Define Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs).
- Understand the 4 Building Blocks of the HOPE Framework and how we can all help instill hope.
- Learn about different strategies to practice resilience and self-regulation for yourself and others.
