“…For research to best address the needs of individuals with FASD, engaging in patient-oriented approaches will continue to be constructive for stimulating innovation and producing the most relevant discoveries. It is important to intentionally develop connection points in order to collectively generate priorities and develop creative solutions that meet the needs of individuals living with FASD (e.g., workshops that pull together multiple stakeholders to serve as collaborative spaces and high-impact training; see Stewart, 2015). Another example includes the research organized by the Canada FASD Research Network (for more info about CanFASD visit http://canfasd.ca/).…”

It is the current authors’ perspective that the successful implementation of Changing Directions, Changing Lives, which seeks to improve mental health and well-being in Canada, cannot be realized effectively without considering FASD. Given that 94% of individuals with FASD also have mental disorders, practitioners in the mental health system are encountering these individuals every day. Most mental health professionals have not been trained to identify or diagnose FASD, and therefore it goes largely “unseen,” and individual treatment plans lack efficacy. Implementation of FASD-informed recommendations, such as those of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (2015), can provide a more effective approach to mental health services and improve mental health outcomes.

“…The methods and outcomes of this project have resulted in a free community resource that has been used in multiple locations around the world. The project served as the foundation for sustained partnerships that have transformed into myriad draws upon applied anthropology in praxis (Stewart, 2015) and is participatory (Ninomiya & Pollock, 2017) in nature and design.…”

This article begins with an explanation of questions of neoliberalism in academia in an era of audit culture; the markers of successful academic projects (such as publication outputs) are challenged. Barriers to and dissemination of Community-Based Participatory Arts and Research (CBPAR) are discussed, such as the discrepancy between the lived experience of community members and potential peer reviewers. Following this discussion, a participatory project is outlined in which the authors seek to capture the untapped creativity of people with FASD, such as capacity for fluid improvisation. Deficits of FASD are reconfigured in an artistic space to capture creativity and lived experience.
