Stage 2 FASD Informed: Mentors & Youth Workers

Interpreting theory into practice, strategies to support FASD


This is a follow on session from the Stage 1 where we take a deeper dive and use what we know or what information we have gathered to start considering how to 'stop before we start'......


  • We start by recapping reflecting on providing a safe space for 'being', setting new expectations and working with the family to identify a method together to 'switch' a hyper-fixation

  • We discussed in our first session how the mind organises words and phrases -“language” - into streams of thought..... how do we learn from this and start changing the ways that we plan and communicate with learners?

  • We will encourage more reflection on shared practice in 'thinking differently'

  • How do we tune in and respond to some of the big emotions we see in children & young people? How can we meet this level or adapt quicky to avoid conflict and redirect?

  • Communication & pause; we will consider how talking in concrete terms can make a difference

  • Provide case examples of complex presentations and out of the box solutions

  • How do we teach 'how to think' strategies in our practice?
