The Asante Centre, together with UBC researchers, has received funding from the Victoria Foundation to study sleep difficulties in children with FASD, which are common, debilitating and often overlooked. Children 6-12 years old who have FASD and trouble falling asleep, with or without difficulties throughout the night, may be candidates to participate.

The costs of transportation will be reimbursed. Their aim is to improve sleep and, with it the quality of life, behaviour, mood and function of children with FASD. They believe that this will lead to reduced burden for you, the caregivers. With your help other children with FASD will also benefit.

For more information, please contact Dr. Osman Ipsiroglu at 604-724-0749 or the Asante Centre.
