Nate Sheets on Supporting Adults with FASD: Autonomy, Regulation & Lifelong Support

In this insightful webinar, Nate Sheets explores what meaningful, brain-based support can look like for adults with FASD—focusing on autonomy, emotional regulation, collaboration, relationships, routines, and lifelong support needs.

Rather than approaching challenges through punishment or “trying harder,” Nate discusses how safety, connection, flexibility, and individualized supports can reduce stress and improve outcomes for adults with FASD and their caregivers.

Key topics include:
• Declarative language & reducing demand-based communication
• Why “time to think” matters
• Emotional regulation & nervous system support
• Building task skills through scaffolding & practice
• Collaboration vs control
• Boundaries, expectations & caregiver wellbeing
• Supporting independence without removing connection
• Why inconsistency is part of FASD—not a character flaw

💛 A powerful reminder throughout this webinar: support does not end at 18.
