Welcome to Halton FASD
We believe individuals with FASD, and their families, have the right to access quality FASD informed services in their community.
Our Collaboration is founded on building awareness and addressing system barriers that prevent individuals affected by or at risk of FASD and their families from realizing their full potential.
We understand that no single organization or group can move this cause forward; FASD crosses all governments and ministry jurisdictions, public and private sectors, and as such we are committed to working together to achieve our shared vision and mission.
What is FASD?
FASD stands for Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. It is a lifelong disability that affects the brain and body of people who were exposed to alcohol in the womb. Each person with FASD has both strengths and challenges and will need special supports to help them succeed with many different parts of their daily lives.
