Episode #124: Invisible Should Not Mean Excluded
During Invisible Disabilities Week, Angela Geddes noticed that most of the awareness posts she encountered omitted FASD. She used the opportunity to create a more inclusive message.
In this episode of Kitchen Table Conversations, Angela connects that experience with concerns raised by National FASD about the Fonagy Review, chaired by Professor Peter Fonagy, on mental health conditions, ADHD and autism. She explores why recognition matters for professional training, assessment and everyday support—and invites us to include FASD in conversations about disability and mental health reform. Support without shame. Fewer wrong doors.
