FASD: The Basics
FASD: The Basics is an educational presentation created to provide the
latest and most accurate information on Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD).
It covers the history of FASD discovery, examines cause and effects of FASD, and
discusses the methods and resources for diagnosis, treatment and –most importantly–
the prevention of FASD.
This presentation was created to provide “the basic” information to
viewers and audiences with little or no knowledge of this subject. Consequently,
presenters and viewers may have additional questions. Further information is available
through the FASD Center’s Information Resource Center at 1-866-STOPFAS (786-7327)
or fasdcenter1@ngc.com. In addition, users
may request training from the FASD Center for Excellence by contacting the Information
Resource Center or completing
the online form.
