The 12-year longitudinal impact of risk and resilience trajectories on adult health following childhood trauma.

While adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are known to increase mental illness risk, their long-term impact on comprehensive mental well-being-and resilience from a strengths-based lens-has been less explored.
