Nature helps children recover from Adverse Childhood Experiences
Time in nature can be a powerful antidote to the negative impacts of trauma and stress in children’s lives. When family service providers incorporate nature into their therapeutic work, children and families experience a wide range of benefits, including improved mental and physical health, stronger relationships, better communication, reduced stress, and healing from trauma.
The evidence-based resources in this toolkit were developed in partnership with Casey Family Programs, a national leader in social work practice.
