Optimization of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder screening in correctional settings via harmonization of archival datasets / Kaitlyn McLachlan & James MacKillop. : PS83-3/447E-PDF

"Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) is a common neurodevelopmental disability caused by prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) that impacts more than 1.4 million people in Canada. FASD is more prevalent in criminal justice contexts compared to the general population, with estimates for adults in correctional settings ranging from 10 to 23%. Despite overrepresentation in correctional settings, individuals with FASD frequently go unidentified, which may lead to increased risk of adverse outcomes for this population. Though several FASD screening tools have been developed to facilitate identification of individuals considered to be at risk in correctional contexts, the evidence base supporting their application in practice remains limited. The Brief Screen Checklist is a screening tool developed by the Correctional Service of Canada for the purposes of identifying adults at risk of having FASD in correctional settings"--Page [iii].
