At the national level, in 2010-2012, the Canadian andAmerican Bar Associations passed resolutions on FASD. In 2013 and 2014both Canada and the US government took up FASD through particularlegislation and proposals to amend the Criminal Code. In the past year theCriminal Injuries Compensation Authority in the UK has begun to considerFASD through criminal cases.As these moves are afoot, we are presented with a myriad of examples ofFASD in the context of the law-practices that are both promising but alsodeeply challenging. This session will bring together those engaged in thesepractices, and, also, those who are interested in learning more. This sessionwill facilitate a space for justice professionals and community workers toshare ideas while also discussing a path forward on the difficult issuessurrounding justice for those with FASD.This session welcomes presentations from those who have been researching,practicing and engaged in FASD and justice efforts. If you’d like to talk aboutthe work you are doing on FASD and the law, please include, in your emailto Kay, a brief description of the topic on which you would like to give a10-minute presentation. We look forward to welcoming both those whoattended FASD and the Law, 2013 and those who are new to this gathering.There will be no cost for the meeting. Lunch will be no-host, available fromhotel restaurants, and can be brought to the meeting room in order tocontinue the conversation over lunch.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 4 | PRE-CONFERENCELet’s Talk:Evidence, Experience, and FASD ResearchSession ObjectivesThe purpose of this session is to create a dialogue among researchers, clinicians, practitioners, service providers and others working with individuals withFASD that will:1. Instil confidence that the research that is, or may be done, is ethical and clearly understood for its relevance and potential positive impact2. Summarize the value of current research, and potential application of emerging research areas, especially from basic and clinical areas3. Invite those working with individuals with FASD to help inform potential future research directions4. Lead to the identification of research issues and directions that are relevant and able to inform practiceFive topics have been identified as the key issues for participant discussion throughout the day. Each session includes brief overview presentations fromclinicians and researchers that will serve to set the context for the group discussion that follows. By the end of the session, the group will have identified keyrelevant research areas that will inform research directions for the field.Each topic will include a researcher and a clinician who will deliver key points for consideration in the ensuing discussion between themselves and amongstthe audience. This will include a summary of current research and clinical better practices on their topic. Following this will be a structured discussion toidentify relevant research areas that will inform future research directions in this area.In each topic, we will try to answer the questions: What do we want to know and why do we need to know it? What are the ethical implications of eachdiscussion? The ensuing discussions will potentially impact the future research to be done.Pre-Conference Overiew(Speakers to be determined)8:00 Registration Open8:30 Welcome & Opening Remarks8:45 Overview9:00 Setting the Context: Why is today important for the FASD field?9:15 Topic 1: Maternal Risk Factors & Alcohol Exposure10:15 Refreshments10:45 Topic 2: Nutrition and Development11:45 Lunch (Provided)12:45 Topic 3: Cognitive, Behavioural, and Education Intervention1:45 Refreshments2:15 Topic 4: Mental Health3:15 Topic 5: New Frontiers in Health-Related Research4:15 Summary & Closing Remarks4:45 AdjournINTEGRATING RESEARCH, POLICY, AND PROMISING PRACTICE AROUND THE WORLD5

FRIDAY, MARCH 6, 2015 | MAIN CONFERENCEJennifer Kuntz, MSW, RSW, Social Worker, Child Development Services, AlbertaHealth Services, Calgary, ABChristina Tortorelli, BA, MA, RSW, Associate Director, Ministry of Human Services,Government of Alberta, Calgary, ABDiagnostic approaches in the fields of developmental pediatrics andchild mental health have focused on single attribution frameworks toexplain the profiles of individuals who present to services with significantdevelopmental, behavioral or mental health difficulties. Consequently,diagnostic and intervention services and public policy have often beenbuilt around single exposures, such as prenatal alcohol exposure orchild maltreatment. Clearly single exposures such as these are highlycorrelated and explanatory for adverse outcomes. However, mostchildren presenting to single exposure oriented clinical services alsohave other significant exposures. For example, many individuals withprenatal alcohol exposure also have early toxic stress experiences relatedto maltreatment or being witness to domestic violence. Children in thecare of child welfare in particular are at greater risk for the cumulative risksof multiple prenatal and postnatal exposures. Models of cumulative riskprovide diagnostic clinicians and intervention providers with a valuableframework to understand how developmental, behavioral and mentalhealth outcomes for individuals are related to the complex interaction ofthese multiple exposures over the life trajectory of a particular individual.This presentation demonstrates how cumulative risk models have beenSATURDAY, MARCH 7, 2015 | MAIN CONFERENCE8:00 - 8:30 Registration Open8:30 - 8:40 Greetings From SpainMiguel Del Campo, MD, PhD, Physician, Genética Clínica, HospitalMaterno Infantil Vall d´Hebron, Barcelona, Spain8:40 - 10:00 PlenaryThe Role of Neuroimmune Mechanisms in FASDJoanne Weinberg, PhD, Professor and Distinguished University Scholar, Department ofCellular and Physiological Sciences, University of British Columbia, Vancouver BCCynthia Kane, PhD, Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, University of Arkansas forMedical Sciences, Little Rock, ARFulton T Crews, PhD, Director, Bowles Center for Alcohol Studies, John AndrewsDistinguished Professor, Professor of Pharmacology & Psychiatry, Chapel HillSchool of Medicine, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NCLearning Objectives:1.
