Healthy Outcomes of Positive Experiences
Families and children grow stronger when H.O.P.E. is incorporated into their lives—and most families are already incorporating these four building blocks!
Key positive childhood experiences mitigate the effects of adversity in childhood and lessen the likelihood of poor mental health in adulthood.
Safe equitable and stable environments for living, learning, and playing at home and in school.
Emotional growth through playing and interacting with peers experiencing nature, developing self-awareness and self-regulation.
Social and civic engagement to develop a sense of belonging and connectedness.
Safe stable and nurturing relationships with other children and adults.
ACERT wants to help families and children access programs and resources they may not otherwise know about. We help connect families to programs, boost them up waitlists when possible, and reduce barriers by taking the first step in reaching out to families. See a list of our partners.
