The FASD Learning Series helps individuals, caregivers, front-line workers and professionals learn more about FASD, and how to support persons with FASD. The educational sessions cover a broad range of topics. Though targeted to residents of Alberta, Canada, much of the content in this series applies to people outside Canada.
