    The Mental Health Programme from the James Tudor Foundation supports UK-registered charities that help children and young people recovering from Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and parents affected by ACEs, mental illness, or addiction.

    The Programme supports a wide range of evidence-based, trauma-informed interventions designed specifically to overcome and prevent the trauma of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). This programme works on several levels, supporting both children and young people affected by ACEs, as well as their parents, to help break the cycle of trauma across generations. Their two key areas of support are:

    1. Support for children and young people

    Under this focus, they wish to partner with charities that deliver specialist trauma-informed, evidenced-based services solely focusing on supporting children and young people who have suffered one or more ACEs, such as:

    • Childhood sexual abuse
    • Living in a household where there is domestic violence, and/or physical and/or emotional neglect
    • Living with a parent who has a mental illness and/or substance abuse
    • Bereavement and complex loss, including children and young people bereaved by suicide, murder, manslaughter, substance addiction, or who have a parent in prison.

    2. Support for parents

    Under this focus, they wish to partner with specialist charities that solely focus on supporting parents and complex family challenges by delivering:

    • Evidence-based, whole-family, trauma-informed programmes that help parents to confront their own ACEs and help to break the intergenerational cycle of trauma and abuse.
    • Evidence-based, whole-family, trauma-informed programmes for families where a parent or caregiver has a mental illness or substance addiction and is at risk of harming their children.

    • Are actively patient led in shaping, running, and improving their services
    • Can demonstrate real impact through their own evaluations or independent research
