Celebrating 9 months of impact on 9 September: International FASD Awareness Day
To mark International FASD Awareness Day, FARE has released data that demonstrates the impact of the Every Moment Matters campaign.
FARE is the only independent organisation focussed exclusively on alcohol harm in Australia. We follow and contribute to meaningful discussions about alcohol consumption, attitudes, behaviours, treatment, education, alcohol harms and policies.
Our goal is to ensure that FARE’s policy positions and advocacy efforts are articulated and broadcast widely, that our evidence-based research is understood and accessible, and that the outstanding work of the organisations and individuals we partner with is showcased.
