We've just added compiled daily living strategies for parents and caregivers of individuals with #FASD. Now available on our website under Resources.
Each strategy document is downloadable and printable. The information is a compilation of everyday strategies and approaches used by parents and caregivers and parents of individuals with FASD. Each individual impacted by FASD has unique strengths and challenges. Therefore, not all strategies suggested will necessarily work for your situation. We recommend finding the best approach and routine that works for you and stick with it! fasdNL is hosting an upcoming event in St. John's for parents and caregivers of individuals with suspected or diagnosed FASD. If you are interested and would like more information, please email fetalalcoholnl@gmail.com.
