TO PACES

Transparency:

46% of children under the age of 18 suffer from at least one ACE (Adverse Childhood Experience). With ACEs having proven to be linked to various mental and physical health conditions, the CDC  devised a way to help people recognize their ACEs through a quiz that generates a score out of 10.  However, the quiz fails to acknowledge the entire spectrum of childhood trauma, especially in regards to the current generation, whilst simultaneously failing to provide any sort of solvency to those affected.

Opportunity:

Update the outdated quiz and create solvency for kids affected

Strategy:

Identify relevant ACEs that encompass a broad spectrum of children, and design a school with various centers and resources that accommodate for them

Transformation:

Design a model for all schools built on principles of inclusivity and mindfulness for all students , especially those that suffer from ACEs
