Approximately 23,000 Albertans are living with FASD, and each year, an estimated 360 children are born with the disorder. That's why the Government of Alberta has invested nearly $37 million since 2007 for FASD programs and services. These funds support FASD-related initiatives across Alberta, including awareness and prevention, assessment and diagnosis, research and support for individuals and caregivers.
A unique made-in-Alberta plan on FASD focuses on developing and delivering community-based solutions, making it easier for those affected by FASD to get the help they need, at any point during their life. By working together, we will help those already affected by FASD and lower the number of babies born with the disorder.
