Upcoming Disability Community Events
9th International Research Conference on Adolescents and Adults with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders
Thursday, April 11, 2024 - Sunday, April 14, 2024Location: Hyatt Regency, Seattle, WA
Despite thousands of published articles on FASD, limited research focuses specifically on adolescents and adults with FASD. As individuals diagnosed with FASD age, the "need to know" across a broad spectrum of areas continues to be critically important for identifying clinically relevant research questions and directions that will impact their day-to-day function and health outcomes. With a prevalence rate of 1 in 20 in the United States, FASD is highly relevant to addiction treatment providers. Building on the work of eight previous conferences, this conference will examine relevant global research, programs, and policies.
