We provide inquiry grant funding to support BC educators to research, design, implement, and share collaborative inquiry which improves educational outcomes for students with FASD.
Educators in B.C. are invited to apply for funding opportunities from the Provincial Outreach Program for Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (POPFASD). This funding is designed to support action research projects that focus on improving literacy outcomes for students with complex needs, particularly those affected by Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD).
For this grant, literacy is defined as the ability to read, write, speak, and listen effectively, enabling individuals to communicate clearly and comprehend the world around them. Our goal is to develop these essential skills in students with complex needs, including those with FASD.
These projects will entail collaborative efforts to conduct thorough investigations into the use of screening tools for identifying at-risk students and to implement tailored, effective strategies for the benefit of students with complex needs.
