“Linda and I salute the early pioneers in this field, and the families living with FAS. There should be a Hall of Fame for them. A Hall of heroes that inspires healing, hope and progress. A Hall for anyone willing to commit whatever it takes.” 

The Honorable Tom Daschle

Established in 2005, the Hall of Fame was named for former U.S. Senator Tom Daschle and his wife Linda Hall Daschle as a tribute to their commitment and leadership in the fight to prevent alcohol-related birth defects, and their long-standing support of FASD United. The Hall of Fame serves as a spotlight honoring the heroes living with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders and the families, advocates and researchers devoted to preventing and treating the disorders. Periodically, a new hero is permanently enshrined in the Hall of Fame.

If you would like to nominate an individual living with FASD or an advocate or family member, researcher, practitioner, or other professional who has dedicated his/her time and resources to working on behalf of individuals living with FASD or has made significant contributions to the cause, please contact FASD United. All nominations should include a 200-400 word description of the nominee(s), their photograph (JPEG, TIFF, PNG or GIF file formats), and contact information for both you and the Hall of Fame candidate. FASD United is unable to accept anonymous or self-nominations.
