SUMMARY:FASCETS Center for Neurodiversity TRAINING: Brain-Based Conditions Including FASD
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 our upcoming trainings\, 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 our 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

SUMMARY:Growing with Care: FASD in Early Learning Environments
DESCRIPTION:This training introduces participants to Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) and its complex effects on young children.  Through real-life examples and practical strategies\, we’ll explore how FASD impacts learning\, behavior\, and social-emotional development and how early childhood environments can be adapted to better meet the needs of affected children.  With a strong focus on understanding\, compassion\, and inclusion\, this session empowers participants to shift from managing behaviors to supporting brain-based needs. FASD is often misunderstood\, yet it affects more children than many other developmental disorders.  In early learning settings\, children with FASD may struggle with behaviors that are misinterpreted as oppositional or inattentive\, when in reality they are signals of an underlying brain-based disability.  By gaining a deeper understanding and adopting proven strategies\, professionals can improve classroom dynamics\, build stronger relationships\, and promote better long-term outcomes for children with FASD.  Creating environments that work with a child’s brain rather than against it is not only possible\, it’s essential.

SUMMARY:Prenatal Substance Exposure Training for Child Welfare Staff
DESCRIPTION:Creating a Family has developed an evidence-based\, specialized training aimed at increasing child welfare professionals’ knowledge of prenatal substance exposure and enhancing their confidence in supporting affected children and their foster\, adoptive\, and kinship parents. \nThrough Creating a Family’s Prenatal Substance Exposure Training for Child Welfare Staff\, participants will be able to recognize the prevalence of prenatal substance exposure in the child welfare system\, identify symptoms associated with prenatal substance exposure\, and be able to identify strategies to support children from infancy to young adulthood. Creating a Family provides access to a resource library\, including resources in Spanish\, during and after attending the sessions. This is an interactive\, 4-hour training split into two (2) sessions. \nOur upcoming training is being offered for free\, courtesy of our partner Jockey Being Family®. \n
