Welcome to FASD Ireland
Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) results when prenatal alcohol exposure affects the developing brain and body. FASD is a spectrum. Each person with FASD is affected differently. While any of 428 recognised conditions can co-occur, FASD is at its core a life long neuro-developmental condition. All people with FASD have many strengths. Early diagnosis and appropriate support are essential, especially for executive functioning.
FASD Ireland is one of the first organisations of its kind in the country, providing awareness, education and support with Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. Our organisation exists to support everyone with a connection (whether diagnosed or not) to FASD, and we provide a supportive environment for this to happen. We are extremely grateful to the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth for their support and funding of our work.
