FASD Factsheet – Transitioning into adulthood

Parenting a teenager can be challenging and parenting a teenager with FASD can be particularly difficult as they transition into adulthood. 

This factsheet has been produced by Velma Eyre and has information about:

  • the steps you might take during the teenage years to support and prepare your teenager for adulthood.
  • what transition planning is, and the Local Authority’s legal obligations towards young adults and their carers.
  • needs and capacity assessments – what to look out for.
  • options for supported living.
  • the legal routes (power of attorney, appointee, deputy) to support your young adult to manage their affairs.
