The role of Social Workers in supporting children and families towards and beyond a FASD diagnosis
Social workers are often the first to identify individuals and families who are at risk of FASD, and play a critical role in supporting people with FASD - and their families - before, during and after the assessment and diagnosis process.
In this webinar you will hear from paediatrician and researcher Professor Elizabeth Elliott, Dr Kerryn Bagley, Senior Lecturer in Social Work and Social Policy at La Trobe University and Julia Perl, Senior Social Worker at the CICADA FASD Service in Sydney.
Covering what FASD is and the role that social workers play in the assessment, diagnosis and ongoing management of FASD, this webinar is a must for social workers looking to become more FASD-informed.

Well done Sam, much respect to you and Jazpa is extremely lucky to have you as a mum, best of luck with life :)
fasd is bad word. please dont use.
What else would it be called?

Loved the video
Can someone explain why they’re saying the name of the condition is harsh?
I searched it up and nothing came up for me. I'll keep looking though, hoping to find answers to this too
@@octobermaskwa3528 i believe it’s an inside joke of some sort. Could it be that they’re culture doesn’t recognize FASD and it’s kind of a culture shock? I know when I first heard of it I was a bit taken a back but through watching documentaries and clips like this you begin to have sympathy for the birth mothers, as shaming accomplishes nothing but delayed treatment.
Probably because it links you to an actual action that has caused your child harm. Whilst there is no question about what substance you abused whilst pregnant with your child, it’s not always clear why you were drinking. Some may have addiction, some may have just been unaware of their pregnancy. Then, if your child is diagnosed, the substance that you technically abused is in the name of your child’s disability. It’s very rare a birth mum will get their child screened for FASD let alone be open about it. Most advocates who are mums are adoptive parents.

Why is it all korean??
'Fasd' is one of the jokes in Korea.
What kind of jokes?
@@ll4980 Can you elaborate?
wtf..... why used fasd.... so bad word..
Fasd is a joke that means very bad but no one tells you what it means because it doesn't mean anything but just says it's bad
Having browsed the range of videos it seems that the aborigine aspect of FASD has been deleted despite the fact that I recently read an article which claimed that approximately 50% of children born in Fitzroy Crossing had FASD. Are all the 'health professionals' going along with this disinformation strategy or do some of them have integrity? I suppose they'd lose their jobs if they didn't go along with it.
Hi Jim, Our videos try to communicate the message that FASD can occur anywhere in society where alcohol is consumed, regardless of socio-economic status. The videos you can see on the FASD Hub UA-cam channel are only part of what we do. The FASD Hub (www.fasdhub.org.au/) includes a lot of information relevant to a wide audience. The data shows that less Aboriginal women drink alcohol than non-Aboriginal women, however many of those who do drink alcohol drink at higher and riskier levels. While poverty and unemployment may be contributing factors in some communities, Australian research has found that in mainstream public antenatal care, higher income and tertiary educated women were 2-4 times more likely to drink alcohol throughout pregnancy than women with only secondary education. Research in the Kimberley found high rates of children diagnosed with FASD, but subsequent work by the community in partnership with researchers has shown a reduction in the rates of drinking from 61% in 2010 to 31% in 2015. Prevention work is ongoing and it is anticipated rates of alcohol use in pregnancy will continue to fall. We have information and resources specific to Australian Indigenous people on the FASD Hub - this includes videos, research and resources www.fasdhub.org.au/help-me-choose/for-australian-indigenous-research-and-resources/
Is anything being done to stop pregnant people from abusing alcahol? Probably not.
Hi Jim, There has been a lot of work with Australian health professionals promoting the ‘no alcohol in pregnancy' message. Currently in Western Australia there is a campaign funded by the WA Mental Health Commission which includes ads on TV, radio and social media: alcoholthinkagain.com.au/campaigns/alcohol-and-pregnancy-one-drink/ The Australian Government has funded the Foundation for Alcohol Research and Education to develop a national campaign which will commence later this year. This will also include TV and radio ads, social media and broader advertising There have also been many local and regional prevention programs across Australia trying to raise awareness of the ‘no alcohol in pregnancy’ message. The National Health and Medical Research Council have revised the Australian guidelines to reduce health risks from drinking alcohol, which include recommendations for women who are planning a pregnancy, who are pregnant or breastfeeding: www.nhmrc.gov.au/health-advice/alcohol.

FASD is barely recognized in the US. There's no respite and the "team" talks & talks but we need more hands-on in-home support. My AS13 need/NEEDS constant/CONSTANT engagement and I'm only one person who needs to manage a household too, it gets overwhelming.
Why do mothers drink while being pregnant ??
because they are thirsty?
I have this but high functioning and have PTSD Mdd Gad My service dog gives me independent I asked my dad why he exposed my mom to achole he got so mad at me
Totally get this - totally with you! Thank you for your honesty in sharing. I am looking at training - trying to come to grips with why I haven't done so before. Thanks Doug.
This is a useless video, it gives very little insight into FASD
I am sorry you feel this way Alex. As we work hard to share the FASD message and the stories of those living with FASD. If you are after more information on FASD perhaps check out www.fasdhub.org.au/
you say it so well what a lot of us are thinking but don't quite have the words in place to express it. thankyou Anita

My son was recently diagnosed with FASD. It seems nobody is informed of trained in this disability that is the # 1 cause of brain damage in this country... When will somebody help?
Thank you for taking the time to post a comment on UA-cam. The FASD Hub website, which is funded by the Commonwealth government www.fasdhub.org.au, has been set up to provide information for health professionals, parents and carers, researchers and policy makers. There is ongoing work to help health professionals understand FASD and how to assess children and make a diagnosis. There have been many face to face workshops and there is also online training that they can do. This training has been developed by health professionals and parents. In addition to what is listed on the FASD Hub www.fasdhub.org.au/training-and-support/training-opportunities/ many organisations conduct their own training sessions. Slowly there are many more health professionals who have experience in this field and yes we do need more. There is a Service Directory on the FASD Hub where you can find health professionals who will assess children for FASD - and we are currently working to have more health professionals register for this listing www.fasdhub.org.au/services/. There are other health professionals who also work in this field but are not listed on the Service Directory. There is some information on strategies for managing children with FASD on the FASD Hub www.fasdhub.org.au/fasd-information/managing-fasd/. NOFASD Australia is the peak body for people with FASD and their families and is another source of information for parents www.nofasd.org.au/. NOFASD have a phone number where you can talk to someone confidentially 1300 306 238. There are also closed parent Facebook groups who can help answer questions or provide ideas on where services are available We know the message that no alcohol during pregnancy isn’t a ‘one day of the year’ message. Across Australia there is also work with health professionals talking to pregnant women about alcohol use during pregnancy and developing prevention messages for use on social media and in various campaigns. Midwives are being trained in asking about alcohol use and how to help women access services if they are drinking alcohol. If you have any questions we would be happy to answer them or direct you to relevant services
