The Importance of a Safe Environment
 
Special from PACEs Connection

By Jenna Quinn, PACEs Connection project manager

Creating positive childhood experiences in schools and the classroom has a profound impact on students' education, well-being, and their future role as responsible global citizens.

News You Can Use

Psychology Today

Thoughtfully designed school environments can help children soothe themselves and cope with triggers.

The Architect's Newspaper

Trauma-informed design is an emerging field within architecture that relies on research about the effects of our environments on our attitudes, moods, and behaviors.

Healthy Outcomes from Positive Experiences (HOPE)

When we promote practices that heal the Earth, we are celebrating all the amazing things this planet provides for us to create positive childhood experiences (PCEs), and happy, healthy children.

Waging Nonviolence 

With stories of anti-racist farmers, queer vegans, collective struggle and overlooked histories, these four books help inspire climate action.

Together we can create amazing, stress-relieving spaces, through trauma-informed design.
