| dc.description.abstract | This research entailed three objectives, namely (1) place the AHTF project in context by describing the development of the sponsoring Eastern Door program and its Elsipogtog context; (2) assess the institutionalization of the Eastern Door program in Elsipogtog, and the contribution to that development by the AHTF project; (3) explore the emergence and possible enhancement of the Eastern Door as a centre of excellence as a community-based model of prevention, diagnosis and intervention for non-genetic birth disabilities (especially FASD) and related secondary disabilities. These objectives were occasioned by, but not limited by, a required assessment of the AHTF project which emphasized objective # 2 and, to a much lesser extent, objective #3. | en_US |
