Alcohol and Alcohol-related Diseases

Abstract

Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) refers to physical and neurodevelopmental symptoms associated with prenatal alcohol exposure. While much is known about deficits in FASD, little research has focused on strengths and quality of life. The “From Surviving to Thriving” model illustrates a perspective shift from deficits-based to strengths-based research and intervention. In order to achieve this, three barriers must be addressed: lack of awareness of FASD, limited access to care, and stigma. This chapter offers a focused review of existing FASD interventions and community programs to illustrate how current work is already confronting these barriers and demonstrating a shift to a strengths-based perspective. It also provides practical guidelines for clinicians to address these barriers in their everyday practice. Future work should build on existing literature to deliberately and systematically design strengths-based interventions to fully support quality of life for people with FASD.
