Following the closure of Health Nexus on March 31, 2026, Partners for Planning (P4P) will be managing and updating this website and the FASD Family & Caregiver Support Group Grants. We are dedicated to ensuring a seamless experience and appreciate your continued patience during this transition.

About FASD

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is a diagnostic term used to describe impacts on the brains and bodies of individuals prenatally exposed to alcohol.

FASD is a whole-body disorder and a lifelong disability.
Individuals with FASD will experience some degree of challenges in their daily living, and need support with motor skills, physical health, learning, memory, attention, communication, emotional regulation, and social skills to reach their full potential.
Each individual with FASD is unique and has areas of both strengths and challenges.
