So looking forward to hearing from Jan and Rossi at the Salford #FASD Conference in June - will you be there 🙋🏻‍♀️ #FindTheirBrilliance
shop.salford.ac.uk/conferenc… Speaking Tuesday June 10th Rossi and Jan are bringing attention to the children who slip through the cracks, the “Lost Children” of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). The numbers are staggering, and yet so many remain undiagnosed and misunderstood

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) often goes undiagnosed, yet understanding it is vital for accessing support. Hear FARE Lived Experience Advocate @AngeleneBruce in conversation with addiction specialist Dr Hester Wilson and clinical psychologist Dr Vanessa Spiller. 🧵

People with #FASD, experts in their own condition, have a lifelong brain-based disability. They deserve understanding in a neurotypical world. They find learning exhausting, have difficulty multitasking, and are often misunderstood. Let's #support. fasd.me/uk-fasd-manifesto/
