About Jim

Jim Casha writes because he believes government has a responsibility to protect the most vulnerable — and because too often, it fails to do so.

His work is driven by a conviction that words can influence policy, and that policy can change lives. Jim writes with the intention of pushing governments to acknowledge, address, and take responsibility for the lifelong impacts of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). For him, this is not an abstract issue or a talking point — it is a matter of justice, care, and accountability.

Jim’s heart breaks for children affected by prenatal alcohol exposure, and for the families who struggle to secure appropriate supports in systems that are fragmented, underfunded, or dismissive. He writes to challenge the silence and inertia that allow these gaps to persist. In his view, when governments fail to act, they shift the burden onto families, educators, healthcare providers, and the individuals living with FASD themselves.

Through essays and reflections, Jim calls for informed, compassionate public policy — policies that recognize FASD as a permanent brain injury, provide early diagnosis, fund lifelong supports, and respect the dignity of those affected. His writing is grounded in the belief that prevention and care are not opposing ideas, but shared responsibilities.

The Writes of a Man, for All Humanity exists to speak plainly about responsibility — personal, societal, and governmental. These words are written in the hope that clear, principled arguments can move decision-makers to act, and that governments can be urged to do better by those who depend on them most
