National Organization on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (NOFAS)

The National Organization on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (NOFAS) is a nonprofit group dedicated to raising awareness, preventing, and supporting individuals affected by Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS). FAS occurs when a woman drinks alcohol during pregnancy, leading to physical, behavioral, and learning problems in the developing baby. NOFAS provides education, advocacy, and resources to empower families, healthcare providers, and communities to understand the risks and promote alcohol-free pregnancies. Their goal is to reduce FAS cases and improve the lives of affected individuals through evidence-based information and support networks.
