@BeyNaveed @SB_FASD @EmbraceComplex As an adult with an FASD, using another name for a disability that is 1.5 times as common as autism and has 427 comorbidities...it keeps FASD in the dark and silent. It needs to be seen and said. #sayitoutloud#fasd#fasdawareness
Do you care about health equity?
In New York State we are trying to get #FASD officially recognized as a developmental disability. Until this happens people with FASD and their families can't access needed developmental disability supports.
@findinggobi hey fellow dog lover and runner! I am reaching out to see if you may be interested in being a sponsor for RunFASD 2023. Check out the video from ita initial year in 2021. Hope to chat soon! www.runfasd.orghttps://youtu.be/dA-YAno4EY8
Yes, and then there's #FASD with a prevalence rate of more than double that of Autism that rarely, if ever, even gets looked at. Often cooccuring with Autism and ADHD and with similar presentations #FASDisNeurodiversityToo
@nysccf i would love to speak to you about getting education out there about FASD. I am a self advocate, and an advocate for all those diagnosed, misdiagnosed, and undiagnosed. I was diagnosed 9 years ago. Let's chat!
