Join us for an informative and engaging workshop designed for educators and school staff to deepen their understanding of Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) and its implications for students in the classroom. We will explore current statistics on NAS prevalence and examine the ongoing needs of children with NAS- identifying the long-term developmental implications as highlighted in the Child Trends study, "Developmental Implications of Prenatal Opioid Exposure Among School-Aged Children (2023)."

 This session will equip you with essential knowledge and practical strategies to better support children impacted by NAS, fostering a more inclusive and supportive learning environment.
