This seems to be asking for evidence about childhood trauma and the effect it has. Not sure if they are looking for people who are doing research on it or people who have been effected by it.

Should I respond? What is 'evidence'?

It looks to me like they want research studies and empirical data rather than submissions from individuals who experienced childhood trauma:

The Committee would welcome written submissions by 8 December 2017 on current research into 'adverse childhood experiences', the extent of the evidence linking them to negative outcomes in later life and relevant educational, social and health interventions
