“A number of you have spoken today that the idea of consequences is not that meaningful for youth with FASD. But the justice system is built on consequences. So we really need to train professionals in the justice system in new methods and new strategies because what I've heard today is that these youth can make progress, can make positive changes, and can really be contributing members of society.”
