We closed off with an interview with Dr Sandra Marais - Chairperson of the Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders
Task Team. We were talking about their upcoming conference. The Task Team will host a national conference ‘A practical Approach to Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Interventions’ that aims to explore issues relating to individuals with FASD and to highlight the need for innovative and ground breaking practices. The conference will see children and their families affected by FASD share their experiences. On Sunday, September
9th is International Foetal Alcohol Spectrum
Disorder Awareness Day. The day aims to raise awareness about the dangers of
drinking during pregnancy and the plight of individuals and families who
struggle with Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders. For further information about the national conference you can contact
