We have learnt from our frontline support professionals in Aotearoa that they want more information about how to best support their Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) clients. So we've set up a new group: FASD Learning & Networking Group for Social Workers and Support Workers – LANSAS for short.

LANSAS group meetings will take place via Zoom on the second Tuesday of every month at lunchtimes, 12.30-1.30pm, hosted by three facilitators with specialised experienced in FASD.

The aim is for our support professionals to learn more about this specific neurodisability and to network with other professionals to discuss common issues. 

Once you've registered to join the group, you’ll receive a list of meeting dates for the 2023 year, so you can schedule them into your diaries well in advance. A Zoom link will be emailed to you the day before each meeting. You can join whenever you like.

The inaugural meeting of the group will be held on Tuesday 11 April 2023. 

Please go to our information page and fill in our quick registration form to become part of the group.
