Building a Resilient Forsyth

Picture
The Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust launched Great Expectations to ensure children in Forsyth County leave kindergarten set for success in school and life. Evidence continues to emerge about the negative social-emotional and health impacts of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs.) Young children who have experienced significant trauma and toxic stress are more likely than their peers to have developmental delays and difficulty with self-regulation, which impacts their success in school.
​

In an effort to reduce the occurrence and impact of ACEs and toxic stress among young children, the Trust funded two projects--one with the Center for Trauma Resilient Communities (CTRC) at Crossnore in partnership with Forsyth Futures and Wake Forest Baptist Health/CareNet and one with the Kellin Foundation—to engage the Forsyth County community in a mapping, planning, and education process. The result will be recommendations for how Forsyth County can create a more trauma-informed early childhood system. The Kellin Foundation and CTRC are coordinating their work and using complementary approaches. It is possible community members may hear from one or both entities as they work to learn more about ACEs and toxic stress in our community. Outreach efforts may include surveys, interviews of residents, training, and events. The projects are working closely and will share data and communicate throughout this process.
