FASD Focus NW

FASt Friends - A FASD Family and Community Peer Support Network

Regional Support Groups


Community is important, people who “get it,” who understand. Our support groups are a chance to build community, make connections and share ideas. To know that you are not alone. Each group meeting is spent sharing joys as well as tears, asking questions, and offering and receiving support from the attending members.

Volunteer run and peer-led, our support groups are open to families or caregivers to individuals who have been diagnosed with or are suspected of being impacted by FASDs as well as to adults impacted by FASDs. Our groups are respectful of and open to birth mothers.

Our Support Group is held online via zoom the 4th Wednesday of each month from 8-9pm Pacific Time.

Sign up below to receive meeting invites. There is no fee to attend and you do not need to sign up each month.

FASD NW Parent Support Group

(For families dealing with difficult behaviors)

At Living Hope Church

2711 NE Andresen Road, Vancouver, WA

FASD NW is a volunteer-led group supporting individuals with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, their caregivers, and family members who often experience isolation, anger, frustration and uncertainty. We would like to support families by meeting weekly and learning together about FASD and the resources in and around our community to help with understanding the tough behaviors.

This is an unseen disorder that our loved ones struggle with. If you have a child who has a known or suspected prenatal alcohol exposure and they have challenges with learning difficulties, developmental delays, mental health challenges, and a wide variety of disruptive behaviors, we are the group for you.

We welcome all families dealing with tough behaviors. FASD, ADHD, Autism,Trauma and more.

This group is led by parent volunteers Debbie England and Crystal Bauer
