WEEKLY REPORT

The figure is a graphic with a purple background and text describing adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). It reads, “ACEs are common, potentially traumatic events. 3 in 4 high school students experienced at least one ACE during the pandemic. These students were more likely to report poor mental health and suicidal behavior. We can prevent ACEs and support adolescents who have experienced them with timely, effective care.”


Adverse Childhood Experiences During the COVID-19 Pandemic and Associations with Poor Mental Health and Suicidal Behaviors Among High School Students — Adolescent Behaviors and Experiences Survey, United States, January–June 2021

The prevalences of poor current mental health and past-year suicide attempts among adolescents reporting four or more adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) during the COVID-19 pandemic were four and 25 times as high as those without ACEs, respectively.
