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:University of Minnesota - Prenatal Alcohol Exposure Web-based Brain Assessment Study
DESCRIPTION:Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) affect an estimated 2 to 5 percent of children nationwide\, yet many go undiagnosed due to high assessment costs\, long wait times\, stigma\, and limited trained providers. Few interventions exist for this population. In this presentation\, Drs. Blake Gimbel and Jeffrey Wozniak—child psychologists and FASD researchers—will share details about their study testing an online neuropsychological screening tool designed to improve diagnostic access\, especially in rural areas. They will outline the research\, explain how families can participate\, and discuss findings on choline as a brain-health intervention for young children with FASD. Audience questions on these and related topics will be welcomed.
