September is FASD Awareness Month

Jenny’s story

As a kinship carer and grandmother, Jenny shares how learning about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) helped her better support her granddaughter, advocate for her needs, and access the right support at home and school. 

Through her family’s journey, Jenny has learned the value of listening, building understanding and working alongside the people who play a role in her granddaughter’s life.  

She hopes that by sharing her story, more families will feel informed, supported and empowered to access the help they need.
