Our Motivation
The Adverse Childhood Experiences Study (ACE Study) is a research study conducted by Kaiser Permanente health maintenance organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).[1] Participants were recruited to the study between 1995 and 1997 and have been in long-term follow-up for health outcomes. The study has demonstrated an association between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and health and social problems in adulthood.

Building Brighter Futures
The importance of engaging parents in the education of their young children cannot be overstated. As Malcolm X said, “Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.”
Remember that you are not only your child’s first teacher, but you are also your child’s most important teacher. Regardless of your situation, you have a lot to offer your child.
To support you on your parenthood journey, the Pittsburgh Child Guidance Foundation is pleased to offer a series of five videos called Building Brighter Futures. The videos are free, short (under 10 minutes) and readily available on the internet. Watch them on a computer, tablet or even your phone.
