Reflect on your score. In a brief paper write (1-2 pages) about your thoughts surrounding the ACE score.

Did you find the scores from the two questionnaires helpful in understanding any trauma you may have experienced as a child? How has that translated to your young adult life? Is there any connection between the data you read about in the book and this article (possible other courses or exposure to the “test”) and how you scored? What about predicting future health/social issues or any of the other topics discussed in the article? Will this tool/data aid in how we address individuals within the criminal justice system, society, education system, and health care?

How do you think this questionnaire will or will not benefit individuals and providers in the future? Do you see the benefit or is this just an undocumented grasping at straws approach?
