This year’s FASD International Research Conference was both powerful and deeply human. Key themes included:The insidious impact of stigma — and how it blocks access to diagnosis and careThe importance of naming FASD to open doors, not close themNew research on paternal alcohol exposure at the time of conceptionThe call for interdisciplinary support, trauma-informed care, and early interventionHeartfelt reminders that every diagnosis is a family story — and every story deserves compassionI ended the trip beside someone whose mother had FASD — a lovely woman who relinquished custody when overwhelmed by the demands of parenting. Their story reminded me: we must humanize this diagnosis, and the families living it.Let’s continue shifting the conversation toward hope, healing, and justice.Please share this podcast with those in your circle and community who would benefit from these important Kitchen Table Conversations.
