Kay Lazar of the Boston Globe wrote this article<\/a> highlighting research on positive childhood experiences (PCEs) and the HOPE framework, and how, just as it is important to monitor for adverse childhood events (ACEs) and toxic relationships, it is also incredibly important it is to monitor and encourage healthy relationships.<\/p>\r\n

As an example of what the HOPE framework looks like in practice, Lazar tells the story of Trudy Wilcox, a mother from Cambridge, MA who was worried about her 8 year-old son, Evan, who was being bullied at school. Wilcox knew that both she and her son needed more support, and worked with the mentorship program Big Brothers Big Sisters to get Evan a mentor. Evan was matched with a freshman at MIT, Nick, who provided emotional support and a source of fun, Wilcox says. Ten years later, Evan and Nick still have a close relationship, which, in conjunction with other strong relationships he had with his mother and math teachers, likely “helped protect him from depression and other mental health” problems.<\/p>\r\n
