FASD and FAS children face difficulties all their lives
Anyone who’s worked in the field of child or adult protection in this state is all too familiar with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) and its even more devastating relative, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS). Kids who otherwise might have had a chance for a good future if removed from an abusive and/or dysfunctional family have no chance of ever really escaping because of the damage done before they were born.
