Family Hangouts are a safe space for families and caregivers of children and youth living with FASD to come together for support, inspiration, and troubleshooting. They are held online on Zoom.

September is FASD Awareness Month, and International FASD Day is on September 9!

When we talk about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), the conversation often focuses on the challenges—but there’s so much more to the story. There are incredible strengths, talents, and successes worth celebrating.

On September 25, join us for an uplifting event where we shine a light on the achievements and unique abilities of individuals living with FASD. This is a chance to hear powerful stories from those with lived experience, as well as the people who support and love them.

Come be part of a joyful conversation—one that honours the gifts that come with FASD and invites you to share your own moments of pride and hope.

Today is International FASD Awareness Day. How aware are you about FASD? Learn something new and watch this video

September 9 is International FASD Awareness Day.

It’s not just about red shoes or hashtags — it’s about real families, real struggles, and the reality of living with FASD every day.

In this video, I share what Awareness Day really means, why it matters, and how you can use it to start conversations that make a difference.

Awareness isn’t confetti. It’s clarity. And that clarity changes everything.

Remember Sept 9th is International FASD Awareness Day!
Great new book for our kiddos with FASD.

FASD Awareness Month is almost here - and it also marks one year since the release of Hannah Denberg’s children’s book “What is Your Superpower?”.

This story celebrates the strengths of children with FASD and shows how families, friends, educators, and communities all play a role in supporting them.

To honour the anniversary, we’ve set an ambitious goal: sell 1000 copies by the end of September. Every dollar goes directly to CanFASD to strengthen research, resources, and services for individuals with FASD and their families.
