Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD): Understanding the Diagnosis

As demonstrated by multiple research and clinical studies, successful interventions for children prenatally exposed to alcohol rely on earliest recognition and appropriate treatment. However, several factors interfere with this process, leading to misdiagnosis and delay of treatment. This session will provide an approach to recognizing and diagnosing children within the fetal alcohol spectrum and discuss the implications of misdiagnosis.

This training series will explore the biological and environmental factors for children and families that impact the ultimate development of children affected by prenatal substance exposure, provide an overview of family- and school-based intervention strategies that can promote long-term growth and development of this high-risk population of children, and address the role of the child welfare system in ensuring best outcomes for all families and their children affected by prenatal substance exposure.
