Welcome!
The primary goal of this site is to list services, supports and resources specifically for families and other caregivers of children, youth and adults affected by Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) in Edmonton, Calgary and the rest of Alberta.
Our secondary goal is to list resources for the prevention of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) in Alberta.
Each resource will be listed as one posting, with the appropriate categories assigned. Please use the Categories list in the sidebar on the left, to see all resources of one particular category -- this is the most effective way to find what you are looking for. Please add comments ... anything from updates to the information, to feedback on your experience of a particular resource or service ... would be very helpful to us and to the other families who come to this site.
This site was started in September 2006 for and by families who are dealing with the effects of FASD.
NOTE: We are not affiliated with any of the organizations or services listed here. Our hope is that in the long run, a provincial parent- and family-led FASD association will be started and that such an organization might maintain a complete listing of services. In the meantime, this site is intended to fill a much needed gap.
Currently, this site is being run by Rob and Wendy Goetze, who have eight children including two adopted children with FASD and one more who is suspected of having FASD. We live in the city of Edmonton.
