The Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW) presents a webinar describing FASD and its impact on each area of child development.

This will be followed by a discussion of indicators that can support the early identification of children at risk of developing mental health concerns. The principles of effective support will also be discussed alongside exploration of available supports and resources for children, families, and supporting professionals.
