SUMMARY:Online Workshop: Understanding Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Through a Trauma Lens with Special Guest Presenter Barb Clark
DESCRIPTION:Special Guest Presenter: Barb Clark\, Adoptive Parent\, Author and Founder of FASD Mosaic\, FASD/Behavior Consultant \nFetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD)\, though more prevalent than autism\, are often overlooked\, misdiagnosed\, or misunderstood. Individuals with FASD live with invisible brain injuries that affect memory\, impulse control\, emotional regulation\, and learning—making traditional behavioral\, educational\, and therapeutic strategies often ineffective or even harmful. This session offers a trauma-informed\, neurobehavioral approach to understanding FASD. Participants will explore how prenatal exposure impacts the developing brain and how those effects show up in everyday behavior. Through real-life examples and practical tools\, we’ll shift the focus from “won’t” to “can’t\,” helping caregivers and professionals respond with greater compassion\, clarity\, and effectiveness. Whether you’re a caregiver\, educator\, or service provider\, this session will equip you to better support individuals with FASD and help them thrive. \nAttendees will receive a FREE copy of Barb’s book\, Raising Kids and Teens with FASD: Advice & Strategies to Help Your Family to Thrive!  \nBarb’s training offers real-world strategies that actually work. As the adoptive parent of five adult children\, including one with FASD\, and having been diagnosed herself with FASD at age 56\, Barb brings lived experience and deep insight to her work in her business FASD Mosaic\, and brings even greater authenticity to her first book–Raising Kids and Teens with FASD: Advice and Strategies to Help Your Family Thrive. \n  \n📩 RSVP today by emailing training@abcfoc.org.
