Safeguarding Workshop - FASD Part 2: Strategies and Support for FASD

FASD (Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder) is a neurological condition that affects people throughout their life.  The condition is entirely preventable.

No amount of alcohol at any stage of pregnancy is safe for the baby.

A recent study in Salford gave a crude prevalence rate of 4% of the population.  People with FASD often fall through the gaps in services, particularly during transitions, and are vulnerable to homelessness and entry into the criminal justice system.  Identification and thorough psychological assessment can identify strengths and areas of difficulty, and with knowledge of that profile the affected person can thrive, and services can respond appropriately.

This training will identify strategies and support models for you to use with children, young people and adults that have FASD.

You can ONLY attend this training if you have already completed Focus on FASD Part 1.
