FASD Hope is a podcast series about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), through the lens of parent advocates with over eighteen years of lived experience.
On the fifth episode of FASD Hope, Podcast Host- Natalie Vecchione speaks with Shannon Iacobacci of Diversely Designed. Shannon has both lived and professional experience in the FASD community. She is a foster / adoptive mom with four children diagnosed with FASD. Shannon is a Certified Facilitator of the FASCETS Neurobehavioral Model and she has trained thousands of caregivers, foster/adoptive parents, mental health professionals, students, educators and organizations about FASD. She is also certified in Youth Mental Health First Aid. Shannon advocates for children and teens with disabilities in the educational system.
Shannon reveals how her lived experience as a parent and her professional experience ignited her passion for advocacy in the FASD community (as well as other Brain Based Diagnoses). Shannon and Natalie also discuss the following topics: awareness of FASD in teens, challenges that parents and caregivers experience raising teens with FASD, why the Neurobehavioral / Brain Based Approach in parenting teens with FASD is so helpful, tips and techniques that she introduces when working with families and how we can better support teens with FASD (and their families, too).
"Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." - Romans 15:13
