FASD Hope is podcast about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), through the lens of parent advocates with over eighteen years of lived experience.
Episode 68 highlights Aubrey Page - an FASD Parent Advocate, FASD Educator, Disability Advocate and Parent Mentor. Aubrey and her husband, Nelson, founded "The Change Starts Here Collaborative". The CSH Collab helps families and professionals working with individuals with brain-based disabilities to feel confident and supported by providing a library of resources and a sense of community, so that they are empowered in supporting these individuals and advocating for their own needs.
Aubrey will be opening up applications for the first year of a mentoring program "Making Change for FASD". It will involve 6 weeks of content that will equip the program student to advocate for FASD in their own community. Together, the students and Aubrey will partner up to work on a project to raise awareness for FASD Awareness Day on September 9th.
In this "kick-start your advocacy up a notch" episode, Aubrey shares a few tips...
When Advocating for FASD:
- Know Your Facts
- Language Matters
- Consider Dignity and Privacy
When Advocating for FASD on Social Media:
- Be Timely
