Event Details
Date: June 26–27, 2025
Time: 9:00am to 12:00pm
Training is conducted 9:00 am - 12 pm in 2 3-hour virtual sessions. Attendance at both sessions is expected to successfully complete this training and
receive 6 SW CEUs if eligible. A Certificate of Attendance is available also.
This training addresses the importance of recognizing a FASD in those with whom we live. FASD is often undiagnosed or misdiagnosed and is more common than Autism or Down Syndrome. Most children/youth with FASD look like their peers but their brain damage cannot be seen. Because of this, FASD is known as an invisible disability. Children/youth may display behaviors that repeatedly get them into trouble. Strategies for improving outcomes for the child/youth, family, and programs that serve them are highlighted.
