BILL · 1995–96 SESSION · LATEST VERSION SSB 5688

SB 5688: Fetal alcohol syndrome

Improving screening for fetal alcohol syndrome.

Summary

  • An intent section is created in which the Legislature finds that because fetal alcohol exposure is among the leading causes of mental retardation in our state, and because individuals with undiagnosed FAS suffer substantially from secondary disabilities, greater support is necessary for efforts directed at the early identification of and intervention into the problems associated with fetal alcohol exposure.
