• Fetal Alcohol Syndrome & Fetal Alcohol Effects: Stories of Help & Hope (25 min., 1994). This powerful video presents a balanced view of the medical and social consequences FAS/FAE. Excellent for women in treatment, addiction professionals, and community education programs, the video is centered on the work being done with children affected by fetal alcohol and their families. It provides a factual definition of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Effect, explains how children are diagnosed and, most importantly, vividly illustrates the positive prognosis possible for fetal alcohol children. Medical and educational professionals, biological and adoptive parents and siblings, and the children themselves speak in this video about FAS.
