Are you looking for FASD specific supports and services in the Edmonton and surrounding area? The Network, through direct fund allocations, provides supports in the following support pillars:
* Assessment and Diagnosis: Assessment and diagnosis strategies promote access to functional assessments for interventions. We want all Albertans who may be affected by FASD to have access to timely and affordable assessment and diagnostic services. For more information please click here.
* Targeted and Indicated Prevention Services: Prevention program strategies promote the health of the mother, prevent or minimize harm to the fetus, reduce the likelihood of further affected pregnancies, and reduce the number of secondary disabilities such as crime, homelessness, re-housing and unemployment for adults, as well as school disruption and foster care placement for children. Our goal is that alcohol use during pregnancy is eliminated, preventing the profound personal and societal costs of FASD. For more information please click here.
