Understanding the Strengths of FASD

Each individual experiencing FASD has their own personal strengths, their super powers, just like any other person in the world. Some strengths are particularly common amongst people with FASD, though.

These strengths include:

  • Friendliness: affectionate, kind, caring
  • Generosity: willingness to help, giving to others
  • Creativity: in art, music, mechanical things
  • Outgoing
  • Determined: often very persistent and will work to get what they want
  • Highly verbal, talkative
  • Often very patient, supportive, kind to younger children and animals
  • Often very knowledgeable in areas of interest to them (ask them for a fun fact!)
