September is International FASD Awareness Month. This year’s theme, “Everyone Plays a Part: It Takes a Community,” reminds us that supporting people with FASD and promoting alcohol-free pregnancies is a shared responsibility.

By learning, supporting one another, and sharing knowledge, communities can help individuals with FASD across their lifespan and promote healthy pregnancies. As a community, we can work together to reduce stigma and create brighter futures.

At our main office at 717 Portage, our windows are being cleaned and you may notice the absence of the names of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two Spirit individuals. The names, which come from the national database, have been recorded and will be back soon after the cleaning. The names are precious, and we are committed to honouring them.
