Chris Troutt's Papillion Center: Transforming Lives with FASD Support

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 episode of Living with FASD, we are joined by Chris Trout, CEO and co-founder of the Papillion Center for FASD. Chris shares her inspiring journey of adopting a child with fetal alcohol syndrome and how it led her to dedicate her life to helping others understand and manage the effects of prenatal alcohol exposure. Tune in to learn about the challenges and triumphs of raising children with FASD, the importance of trauma-informed care, and the innovative programs at the Papillion Center that are making a difference in the lives of families across mid-America.
