FASD: Mythbusting and Building Success

Thursday February 19, 2026 9:00am - 10:00am MST

RDP Room 2503 @ 100 College Blvd, Red Deer, AB T4N 5H5

Jeff and Eloise Madsen's session shares paths to success for FASD students and the professionals who support them. They share their knowledge and training about FASD using CANFASD data and hands on resources directly from the wider FASD community, ie. insights from individuals on the spectrum and the caregivers who support them. They address stats, facts, and myths in the context of their own stories as both teachers and parents.
