Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders: Understanding the person behind the diagnosis
Supporting individuals with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) can be complex, particularly when traditional approaches used with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) often do not produce the desired outcomes. Understanding the unique brain-based challenges associated with FASD is essential to providing effective, person-centered support and promoting long-term success. In this session, participants will gain an understanding of the causes, diagnostic criteria, and lifelong impact of FASD on individuals and their families. We will explore the primary and secondary characteristics of FASD, common co-occurring mental health conditions, and how these factors influence behavior and daily functioning. Participants will also examine the implications of FASD for social service providers and learn practical, FASD-informed strategies that can improve service delivery, reduce secondary challenges, and enhance outcomes for the individuals they support.
