NOFAS Vision
• The vision of the National Organization on Fetal Alcohol
Syndrome (NOFAS) is a global community free of
alcohol-exposed pregnancies and a society supportive
of individuals already living with Fetal Alcohol
Spectrum Disorders (FASD).

The effects of FASD last a lifetime
FASD is the leading cause of intellectual disability and is a leading cause of birth defects and learning and behavioral disorders.
FASD’s can be PREVENTED!

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders
(FASD) • Caused by drinking alcohol during
pregnancy
• Alcohol is a toxic substance – if a pregnant mother drinks, it can affect the baby in many ways:
o Birth defects
o Intellectual abilities
• Brain damage, behavioral problems, lower IQ
o Characteristic facial features
• These are life-long effects – the baby does not “outgrow” them

FASD FACTS • FASD annual births are higher than Down Syndrome, Cerebral
Palsy, Cystic Fibrosis, Spina Bifida and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome—COMBINED.
• Some believe that cocaine is the primary substance abused by pregnant women, although this is untrue. The % of pregnant women that use alcohol is more than double of those that use cocaine while pregnant.
• In 1996, the Institute of Medicine reported “Of all substances of abuse (including heroin, cocaine, marijuana), alcohol produces by far the most serious neurobehavioral effects in the fetus.”

Alcohol is a teratogen • (def. an agent that can cause malformations of an
embryo or fetus). Alcohol can cross the placenta and
enter fetal circulation, damaging cells and the DNA
they contain.

Summary of Neuropsychological
Findings • Heavy prenatal alcohol exposure is associated with a
wide range of neurobehavioral deficits including
visuospatial functioning, verbal and nonverbal learning,
attention, and executive functioning
• Children with and without physical features of the fetal
alcohol syndrome display qualitatively similar deficits

Advancing Alcohol SBI & CHOICES in
American Indian and Alaska Native Populations through Training & Technical Assistance
CDC is funding clinic sites to offer CHOICES and alcohol SBI
Preventing FASD is up to all of us: • Screening and BI
• Referrals to treatment
• CHOICES
• Educate all patients about alcohol use and pregnancy

Why Don’t Doctors do more to educate &
prevent FASD? Don’t ask; Don’t tell
Doctors are convinced women are “too complicated” to treat
Once an addict always an addict.
………..Why bother? Women are fearful of
prosecution Women don’t want to be
labeled as an addict or alcoholic
Women just don’t “get it”- Social, cultural and media messages vary

Families raising a child with an FASD face
many challenges
• Most cases of FASD are never diagnosed. Symptoms of
FASD are identified and addressed. But rarely is alcohol
identified as the causal factor.
• Few physicians, healthcare professionals, disability
professionals, psychologists, therapists, etc. are
trained in how to identify FASD.
![Page 31: CREATING A CIRCLE OF HOPE FOR WOMEN AND THEIR … · Each Appear Across a Continuum of Severity Fine, gross motor skills impairment Mild Severe Cognition Behavior Social Skills Speech](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052103/603d863a6d039c53e82c166c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Even with a diagnosis, systems of care
aren’t educated on FASD
• Children with an FASD often don’t fit in with
their peers-nor do they fit in with children
with other disabilities
• School systems do not want to provide
resources for students that look “just fine”
• Educators are unaware of teaching strategies

“It’s the stories that

begin with the
stories.” – Bill Clinton

Practice Compassion
They are doing the best that the can, with the tools they have been given.
• Be Gentle * Listen to their story
• Help them to find safe haven ~ if it’s obvious they need help to stop drinking ~ help them find treatment
• Go the extra mile ~ check in with them
• Never under-estimate the power of giving just 2 minutes of your time ~ let them know they matter
