SUMMARY:The Difference Between Autism and Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD)
DESCRIPTION:1. CE offered through CEBrokers for Florida LCSW\, LMHC\, LMFT\, CMSW \nCost:  $39.00 \nDescription\n\nThis one-hour presentation will discuss the similarities and differences between Autismand Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (ASD/FASD). Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders(FASD) cover various conditions caused by moms drinking alcohol during pregnancy\,leading to changes in the body and brain. Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex brain-related condition. Some experts think that when moms drink during pregnancy\, it might raise the chances of their child having ASD\, especially if there’s a family history. This review aims to break down the research on the possible connection between FASD and ASD. Studies in this area have given mixed results\, showing both similarities and differences between the two conditions. What’s interesting is that both disorders often get misunderstood or not recognized enough. So\, it’s crucial to look beyond the obvious signs and pay attention to subtler traits and less severe cases. \n\n  \nObjectives: \n\nBetter understanding of similarities and differences between FASD and ASD\nAble to identify at least four similarities/differences in social behaviors in FASD and ASD.\nLearn different teaching methods for working with students with ASD/FASD.\n\n  \nPresented By Kathryn Shea\, LCSW\, FASD United Board MemberOver 35 years of experience in the field
