Workshop Summaries
FASD and the Justice System: Challenges and Strategies for
Navigating the System
Jonathan Rudin
The FASD Clinic at NEO Kids, Health Sciences North started in 2011 in
collaboration with the FASD North Eastern Aboriginal Partnership
Project (NEAP). The FASD Clinic at NEO Kids is very fortunate to have
a dedicated multi-disciplinary team that provides comprehensive
assessment consistent with the Canadian FASD Diagnostic Guidelines
(2016). While the clinic has experienced an exponential increase in
referrals in 2016 we are committed to contributing to FASD
education and awareness so that all children who may be experiencing difficulties from prenatal alcohol exposure have access to early
diagnosis and therefore early intervention and support.
Our presentation and panel discussion aims to increase
awareness and educate the diverse audience on the FASD assessment
process and how the team comes together specifically to formulate a
diagnosis of FASD. This material will be presented not in a scientific
way, but rather in an interactive manner that is engaging and easily
understandable to all participants of the conference. To enhance the
presentation we will host a panel presentation and discussion with a
strong First Nation perspective about the challenges and benefits of
navigating the FASD diagnostic process. The panel will consist of 3 to
4 participants including a patient, family, child advocate.
Sault Ste. Marie Community Court and Supporting People with FASD
Melody Hawdon & Dana Peterson
We will be looking at the Algoma Justice System and the development
of the Sault Ste. Marie Community Court. A journey through the
progression and growth of including people with an F.A.S.D diagnosis
and people who are only suspected of being affected by pre-natal
exposure. It's with great pride that we will share the growth and
positive outcomes that have derived from the changes to our local
justice system.
