Intervention Network Action Team (iNAT) Newsletter - 3rd Issue
The iNAT is one of three network action teams within the Canada Northwest FASD Research Network (CNFASDRN), an alliance across four Western provinces and three Territories to build FASD research capacity. The iNAT works to improve both policy and practice in serving individuals affected by FASD and their families in several ways:
- - Directing, supporting and participating in FASD intervention research;
- Building knowledge and awareness of quality FASD intervention policy, practice and research across jurisdictions; and
- Promoting a higher standard of research applicable to policy and practice.
This newsletter is the third issue in a series of quarterly newsletters designed to keep people informed of what’s happening in the exciting and challenging field of FASD interventions.
