The Families Moving Forward (FMF) Program was developed by Dr. Heather Carmichael Olson in the early 2000s in response to a call from the CDC to develop, test, and implement interventions for children living with FASD. FMF is an evidence-based intervention to help families raising children who are affected by prenatal alcohol exposure, with or without a fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) diagnosis. The FMF Program combines a positive behavior support (PBS) approach with motivational interviewing (MI) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help parents change their own knowledge and attitudes about PAE and FASD, leading to improvements in their child’s behavior. The FMF Program is listed as a promising practice by the California Evidence Based Clearinghouse, and it is one of four behavior and education therapy services recommended by the Center's for Disease Control (CDC) for FASD intervention.
