“Resilience”
League of Women Voters of Moscow presents this one-hour documentary that delves into the science of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and the birth of a new movement to treat and prevent toxic stress. Experts now believe that toxic stress is one of the leading causes of everything from heart disease to cancer to substance abuse and depression. These extremely stressful experiences in childhood can alter brain development and have lifelong effects on health and behavior. Resilience chronicles this new approach among pediatricians, therapists and communities who are using cutting-edge science to disrupt cycles of violence, addiction and disease. Please be advised, this documentary contains material that may by sensitive in nature.
