Give FASD a Seat at the Table.
Every September, the FASD community gathers and gains momentum to advocate and educate in support of those living with FASD and those who care for them. This year, we’re ensuring FASD has a seat at the table throughout the 9th month and the 9th day (FASD Awareness Day).

What someone with an FASD means to you:
The Stars for Starla program is a hopeful, positive program that honors FASD self-advocate Starla’s legacy by providing youth with FASD a recognition award mailed directly to them. This is a fantastic way to focus on the strengths and talents of individuals living with FASD.
Tell someone with an FASD that you appreciate their efforts here. Questions or concerns?
