Extractions: Teaching and Research Awareness Project FASTRAC was designed to train upper class high school students as Peer Trainers who will then work with freshman students to educate them about the dangers of drinking during pregnancy. Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities are caused by numerous factors, some of which we have not yet been discovered. What we do know, however, is that Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, which occurs when a pregnant woman consumes alcohol, continues to be the leading preventable cause of mental retardation. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is 100% preventable. As part of its ongoing mission, The Arc is committed to reducing the incidence and limiting the consequences of mental retardation through education, research, and advocacy and by supporting people with mental retardation, their families, friends, and community. We launched our Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Teaching and Awareness Project in the spring of 2002. This project was inspired by the Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Training and Awareness Campaign (F.A.S.T.R.A.C.) created by

Extractions: The Association of Chief Psychologists with Ontario School Boards FETAL ALCOHOL SYNDROME Causes Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) is the most commonly identifiable cause of mental retardation. Due to the fact that alcohol freely crosses the placenta, it has a range of effects on the developing fetus. These effects vary depending how much alcohol is consumed and during which part of fetal development the consumption occurs. The greatest risk of exposure is during the first twelve weeks of pregnancy. In the US, 1 in every 500-1000 births is affected by maternal alcohol use. Maternal drinking during pregnancy does not always result in FAS. Most children affected by alcohol exposure before birth do not have the characteristic facial abnormalities and growth retardation identified with FAS, but they do have brain and other impairments that are just as significant. These children are referred to as having Alcohol-Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder (ARND). This was formerly referred to as Fetal Alcohol Efffect (FAE). Definition Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is formally defined by four criteria.

Children with fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) or alcohol-related neurodevelopmental disorder (ARND) can have serious lifelong disabilities. CDC-sponsored studies find that children with FAS/ARND are at very high risk for developing secondary conditions such as difficulties in school, trouble with the law, substance abuse problems, and mental health problems. Currently, interventions for children with FAS/ARND are often non-specific, unsystematic, and/or lack scientific evaluation or validation. Grantees are working together with CDC, through a collaborative effort, to identify, develop, and evaluate effective strategies for intervening with children with FAS/ARND and their families. Through these interventions, researchers are trying to help children with FAS/ARND develop to their full potential, prevent secondary conditions, and provide education and support to caregivers and families.

Extractions: The Abstract: Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS), is something whose mere mention implies different things to different people. It is a 'syndrome' immersed in stereotypes by the North American society in which we live, the majority of which are sadly negative. In the paper that follows, though written from a North American perspective, I will refrain from examining the specifics of these stereotypes, for to acknowledge them would only give them attention that I do not believe that they deserve in the context of this article. This paper does not try to give specific answers to the questions on FAS and our education of it. To do so would need a much longer and larger paper than is applicable to this assignment.. The idea of what follows is to give an overview of what we currently teach people around FAS and FAE and to show that from information that is now starting to be slowly become available, that we need to re-examine just what we are teaching. Whether or not the education that currently give people around this subject is fair and accurate remains to be seen. My hope is that this paper at least gives the reader food for thought.
