Description

In this progress report, you will find an overview of the Government of Alberta’s FASD 10-year Strategic Plan after seven years. This evaluation was facilitated by PolicyWise for Children & Families. The full evaluation data can be found in the “Overview of Key Findings and Recommendations” document at fasd.alberta.ca. In most cases, we are well on our way to meeting our Year 10 targets. For example, 89% of Albertans surveyed indicate a high level of awareness around what causes FASD; 81% of women participating in the Parent-Child Assistance Program for three years, many of whom have dealt with serious addictions, are preventing FASD births. 90% of people are satisfied with their FASD supports—and research from Alberta is guiding best practices in the field.

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is the leading cause of preventable birth defects and one of the leading causes of developmental delay in children in Canada.

This project attempted to develop and implement supports for physicians to improve FASD screening and prevention services they deliver to all women of childbearing age.
