Transitions into adulthood for people with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder: A scoping review of promising practices
Twenty-one peer-reviewed sources were included in this review. Studies largely focused on one of three areas: (1) programs supporting youth with FASD and their families, (2) lived experiences of individuals with FASD during the transition to adulthood, or (3) preventing adverse outcomes. Recommendations from included studies highlighted the importance of programs and supports that demonstrate an understanding of FASD and emphasize relationship-building, the benefits of obtaining an FASD diagnosis, the notable gap in services for individuals who have transitioned to adulthood, and the importance of consistent advocates in the lives of youth with FASD.
