All over the world, September is known as FASD Awareness Month. And September 9, (09/09) is International FASD Awareness Day.
FASD-CAN is holding our Hui this year on September 9 in Kirikiriroa / Hamilton with a host of national and international speakers. The Hui is now fully booked, but we will be bringing you some gems from it over the course of FASD Month.
We have teamed up with our friends at Alcohol Healthwatch in creating a website just for FASD Awareness Month. You'll find it here: FASDmonth.nz but there are some resources below to get you started.
• It's election time – so use our handy template to write a letter to your local MPs about FASD and ask them how they're planning to raise awareness of it! Instructions on finding your MP's email address included. Click here to download.
• FASD graphic info sheet – download here or on the pic below.
• FASD Month Quiz – a quick and simple true/false quiz for friends and colleagues to raise awareness of some of the numbers and misconceptions about FASD. Click here or on the pic below.
• 'Prenatal Alcohol Exposure and its lifelong impact' brochure by Alcohol Healthwatch – download here.
