FASD-CAN Navigators provide much-need face-to-face mentoring and support to our whānau and caregivers.
We currently have Navigators in Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland and Te Tai Tokerau / Northland.
The purpose of the Navigators is to support those caring for tamariki and rangitahi who have FASD or possible FASD, and to enable the whole whānau to live their best lives.
Key goals are:
- Establishing a face-to-face whānau, parents/caregivers support group or supporting an existing one in the region
- Providing advocacy and support for whānau, parents and caregivers
- Providing education to whānau, parents and caregivers, as well as service providers
- Networking with the disability sector to raise awareness of FASD
- Developing a regional resource of FASD informed providers in the pilot region
- Building relationships with professionals and service providers across sectors.
