FASD prevention isn’t just about women.
Men’s alcohol use, mental health & life experiences influence:

Pulling from research on how health impacts learning combined with insights from polyvagal theory and applied educational neuroscience, we will explore how the synthesis of these factors impacts a student’s ability to receive appropriate and effective educational care.
