Abstract
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are severe or chronic stressors before age 18, including domestic violence, neglect, abuse, financial hardship, and parental separation (Loria & Caughy, 2018).
Research on ACEs in immigrants is limited, despite Latinx immigrant children being the fastest-growing child population in the U.S.
