Free continuing education opportunity: Join us September 15 for Alcohol Use Across the Lifespan for Women
This presentation explores the rising patterns of alcohol use among women across the lifespan and highlights the complex biological, psychological, and social factors that influence alcohol consumption at different stages of life. Using a lifespan development perspective, the session examines how alcohol use evolves from adolescence through the reproductive years and into menopause, emphasizing the unique health implications and vulnerabilities associated with each phase.
Participants will also receive a practical toolkit containing screening resources, educational materials, and evidence-based strategies designed to support clinical conversations, risk assessment, and patient-centered interventions related to alcohol use in women’s healthcare settings.
Continuing nursing education credit pending.

Our partnership aims to increase knowledge and skills among advanced practice nurses and midwives about the health impact of excessive alcohol use, including any alcohol use during pregnancy, to reduce alcohol-exposed pregnancies and improve population health.
NPs, Midwives and Nurses: Partnering to Prevent FASDs is part of the Collaborative for Alcohol-Free Pregnancy and the FASD National Partner Network, a group of national partners, medical societies, university centers, and a variety of practitioners from six health disciplines who work together to prevent FASDs and excessive drinking.
The goal of the National Partner Network is to impact healthcare practice at the systems level and enhance FASD prevention opportunities nationally for women of reproductive age and their support networks.
