‘positive mental health’

control of access and enforcement.
• A life course approach- new concerns about
adverse childhood experiences (ACES) impacts
on violent behaviours, poor communication
and poor mental health in later life
• A public mental health approach- linked to
ACEs, the neurobiological hardwiring of
young brains in the first 1001 days; Reinforcing
positive mental attributes: self-confidence,
self-esteem, self-expression and positive
communication
