FASD & IDD: Two Overlapping Developmental Disabilities

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) and Intellectual Developmental Disorder (IDD) share core similarities in neurocognitive functioning, self-regulation, and adaptive behavior symptoms. Current diagnostic frameworks emphasize adaptive functioning rather than IQ in determining disability severity, and emerging research indicates that FASD can impact daily functioning just as much as, or even more than, IDD. This presentation offers an overview of both conditions and examines areas of overlap and distinction, including scope of functional impairment, severity, screening and diagnostic considerations, planning for adulthood, and evidence-based interventions across the lifespan.
