Where can you listen?

Positive childhood experiences (PCEs) drive healthy child development and lessen the lifelong effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). The HOPE framework centers around the Four Building Blocks of HOPE, or key types of positive childhood experiences that all children need to thrive. Using the HOPE framework, organizations, communities, and individuals can make changes to practices, policies, and programming to ensure that children and families have access to PCEs.

In each episode, Dr. Robert Sege and Dr. Baraka Floyd interview leaders in child health and development in order to learn more about how to support families in creating PCEs for their children.
