As we wrap up Alcohol Awareness Month this April, we are taking a deep dive into disability and alcohol use disorder, two crucial topics that are intertwined when it comes to FASD and prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE). People with disabilities, including people with FASD, are underserved by systems of addiction treatment and recovery. We spoke with Dr. Rachel Sayko Adams, an alcohol and substance use researcher and an Associate Professor at Boston University’s School of Public Health.

FASD United stands alongside leading Autism organizations in calling for “science-based decision-making and respectful public dialogue.” We at FASD United share the Autism community’s concern with an effort to identify the cause of Autism and with rhetoric that refers to the condition as “preventable.” The FASD and Autism communities are both stronger when we come together.
