Confirmation of a FASD diagnosis for their child often comes with a tumult of emotions for parents and carers – relief that they have an answer for the challenges their child experiences, grief due to the knowledge that this is a life-long condition, and confusion about how to move forward to achieve the best possible outcomes for their child.
To assist, NOFASD has launched a new booklet “Guide for Parents and Caregivers after a FASD Diagnosis” which provides practical information to assist parents and carers – with key facts about behaviours, challenges and characteristics that are likely to be encountered across their child’s lifetime as they grow and develop. Pictured with the booklet are members of NOFASD’s Lived Experience Advisory Group who were delighted with the new publication.
