SUMMARY:FASCETS Center for Neurodiversity TRAINING Brain-Based Conditions Including FASD: Understanding & Application of the FASCETS Brain-Based Approach
DESCRIPTION:The FASCETS brain-based approach explores the concept that we each have strengths and challenges based on how our brain works. These can be directly informed by our genetic make-up or by pre or postnatal events. In both our 15-hour upcoming training\, we discuss the FASCETS brain-based or neurobehavioral approach which links brain function with behaviors\, leading to supports that work and make a difference for all brain-based differences such as FASD\, ADHD\, Autism\, Dementia\, TBI and more! \nJoin us for a deep dive into the 15-hour Live webinar to learn more about the FASCETS brain-based approach and discover tools to implement it in all settings in order to create person-specific supports regardless of the source of the brain-based difference: FASD\, ASD\, ADHD\, autism\, dementia\, acquired brain injuries…) It is effective for all people across their entire lifespan. \nIf you are someone who lives with\, works with or knows someone with a confirmed or suspected brain-based difference\, this workshop is for you! \nTo learn more about these and all of our other upcoming trainings and to register\, visit: https://www.fascets.org/book-online
