About MOFAS

The Minnesota Organization on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (MOFAS) is the only statewide source for training, information, resources and support for  Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD).

Our MOFAS Mission

Since it was incorporated in 1998 as a 501(c)(3) non profit organization, MOFAS has worked to eliminate disability caused by alcohol consumption during pregnancy and improve the quality of life for those living with FASD throughout Minnesota.  Our vision is a world in which women do not drink alcohol during pregnancy and people living with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) in Minnesota and beyond are identified, supported and valued. It can only be achieved with your help.
