Living with FASD is an educational and human interest show for those living with the effects of prenatal exposure to alcohol, their loved one and anyone interested in learning more about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders, brought to you by someone with both professional and living experience with FASD.

In this enlightening episode of Living with FASD, we welcome Dr. Kenneth Lyons Jones, a pioneering figure in the field of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders.
