The FASD Success Show

Do you hear people suggest using a strength-based approach when supporting individuals with FASD but wonder what that means or how to do it? Do you wish someone would ask for your opinion as a caregiver? If so, this podcast is for you.  

In this episode of The FASD Success Show Dr. I talk with Dr.  Katy Flannigan (Research Associate at CanFASD) and Dorothy Reid (Co-Chair of the Family Advisory Committee) about two recent projects: a narrative review of the literature on the strengths of individuals with FASD and a survey seeking the experiences of caregivers. 

This was a fascinating discussion. Not going to lie - like the researchers, some of my beliefs were challenged and changed. This study provides a few reflective statements that might just change the way you view and support individuals with FASD.  

You will also learn about the Caregiver Survey CanFASD launched on September 9 (FASDay) 2021. It is still open for caregivers (no country limits) to participate. Check below for a link to our blog.
