in

To promote awareness and prevention of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), AHT provides services which include:

  • Community information workshops

  • Support groups

  • Referrals to assist the families of FASD children

  • Nutritional counselling

  • FASD Diagnosis and Assessment

In partnership with St. Joseph’s Hospital and Breaking the Cycle, AHT provides a FASD Diagnosis and Assessment Clinic. A multi-disciplinary team consisting of a Physician, Nurse, Psychologist, Circle of Care Worker, Traditional Healers and Traditional Counselors provides assessment where there has been pre-natal exposure to alcohol and /or drugs.

Community members are invited to access information on FASD support services and resources at our program office. It takes a community to prevent Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder and its effects and to support expectant mothers to be alcohol free.

We seek a community with children who are knowledgeable of their ways and values and proud of who they are - children with a strong sense of identity and the confidence to participate as equals in a Native and non-Native environment.
