D7 - Developing Collaboration Between Clinical and Indigenous Frameworks in FASD Practice to Address Current Inequities in Service Provision Andi Crawford, Querida Whatuira-Strickland, Laurie Te Nahu, Kate Robertshaw Collaboration between clinical and indigenous community frameworks is imperative within FASD practice and research if we are to address current inequities between the Maori and the Aotearoa (white), in New Zealand. This presentation aims to demonstrate how clinical knowledge and indigenous models of health can together provide important information for future policies and service provision for tamariki (children) and whānau (families) living with FASD. Learning Objectives: 1. Increase understanding of how staff in both research and clinical settings can work together to improve outcomes for whanau who are living with FASD 2. Demonstrate how clinical knowledge and indigenous models of health can together provide important information for future policy and service provision for the FASD population
