FASD Hope is a podcast series about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), through the lens of parent advocates with over twenty years of lived experience.
Episode 160 celebrates the AMAZING advocacy, work and fellowship of the Rural FASD Support Network (Ontario, CA). The Rural FASD Support Network was founded by a small group of volunteers with personal knowledge of & lived experience with FASD in rural Ontario (Canada). Today's conversation is with Rob More, Secretary of Rural FASD. Rob and his wife Shelley are proud parents of three amazing young adult children impacted by FASD. Rob, Shelley and four other dedicated volunteers are the co-founders of the Rural FASD Support Network of Eastern Ontario, which is currently the largest, nonprofit, lived disability experience in Canada following "Nothing For Us Without Us".
In this HOPE-FILLED EPISODE, Rob shares the following: the history of the Rural FASD Support Network, the exponential growth & key developments of Rural FASD, the diversity & representation of Rural FASD, the exciting legislative update of the National FASD Framework Legislation in Canada (and how Rural FASD and others advocated on Parliament Hill on October 20th), the blessings (and challenges) of living in a rural area as a family of those with FASD and words of hope and encouragement.
"As you have therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving."
- Colossians 2: 6-7
