Journey Through The Healing Circle

Description

Journey Through The Healing Circle is a series of four books and videos for use in Fetal Alcohol Effects & Fetal Alcohol Syndrome training with foster parents, tribes, school personnel, medical personnel, and clients. These training resources demystify FAE/FAS by using a Native American storytelling format that reaches across all cultural and generational lines. Teaching and learning are accomplished by using animals of the forest as the main characters. The books and videos address the complexities and challenges that make parenting an FAE/FAS child a difficult task and provide valuable information on prevention.
