This free four-hour training is an introduction to FASD – an 'FASD 101' aimed at community kaimahi / staff (non-clinical), who are working with people who have (or may have) FASD, as well as for caregivers, parents and whānau.

The training will offer participants the knowledge and strategies to effectively engage with FASD-related needs. It's also an opportunity to create supportive environments and local networks that are FASD-informed.

The training is interwoven with mātauranga Māori.
