Building Circles of Support: An Educational Series on FASD

The Manitoba Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) Network’s Building Circles of Support program is returning this fall at SSCY Centre. This eight-week, in-person educational series is designed for parents, caregivers, family members and professionals who support youth under 17 years old. The sessions will provide comprehensive knowledge about caring for someone diagnosed with FASD.

Topics often include, but are not limited to:

  • What does it mean that my child has FASD?
  • How will FASD affect their behaviour, school performance and social interactions?
  • How can I help others understand my child’s disability?
  • How can I help my child understand their disability?
  • How can I help my child develop their strengths?

As topics vary each week, attendees are encouraged to participate in every session to gain the full benefit of the program. A maximum of 50 participants can register for the series.
