Description

This research project explains Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) and its affect on individuals' speech and language skills. The background, history, physical anomalies, and characteristics of FASD were also discussed. With more in depth concentration on speech and language, further descriptions were given on the language comprehension, articulation, and fluency difficulties that individuals with FASD may face. A qualitative research study was done to gain knowledge from the experience of raising a child with FASD. The results of the research were coded and categorized, and final assertions were made regarding the development of individuals with FASD, including their speech and language development.
