FASD Intensive Reintegration Service

The FASD Intensive Reintegration Service helps young people who have been diagnosed or are suspected of having Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) and have been found guilty of an offence under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. Participation is voluntary and personalized. The program uses a relationship-based approach to support young people in all areas of their life, focusing on social and emotional awareness.

The Neurodevelopment Model of Behaviour Management is used to teach both the youth and their caregivers about their specific needs to achieve better outcomes. The service is centered on the client’s needs, focusing on their strengths and abilities. Support can vary in intensity and focus, and may include help with daily activities, housing, community involvement, and connections to the Developmental Service sector. Transportation is also provided to support participants.
