WHITECROW VILLAGE FASD SOCIETY is a non-profit, charitable organisation committed to educating communities and professionals about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) and to improving the lives of those who are affected by this prominent neurodevelopmental disability.FASD affects all facets of society and reaches across all social and professional domains. It transcends cultural and economic diversities, and is reported to be the highest occurring birth defect in North America (topping Muscular Dystrophy, HIV Infection, Spina Bifida, and Down Syndrome). Health Canada estimates that 9 out of every 1000 babies born have FASD, and that one child with FAS is born every day in Canada.
Without proper support and understanding, persons with FASD are at risk for many secondary disabilities including drug and alcohol addictions, trouble with the law, unemployment, poverty, homelessness, depression, and suicide.
Our core Live-In FASD Education (L.I.F.E.) Sessions - affectionately known as camps - present a microcosm of the real world, where we live, work, and play together; and where we learn how to understand and appreciate each other; acknowledging our limitations as well as our gifts.
Whitecrow Village subsidiary programs offer support and guidance in areas of Community & Family Stability, Addictions Recovery Support, Education, Interdependent Living, and Employment.
