What MOFAS Does

The Minnesota Organization on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (MOFAS) is the only statewide source for training, information, resources and support on Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) such as Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS). We strive to build partnerships and implement systemic change for improving services for individuals and families in MN, affected by FASD. We also work to educate on topics surrounding alcohol consumption during pregnancy and inform about the many myths (drinking wine while pregnant is OK?) that exist in reference to this.

The challenges for families living with FASD are intense, and at times, may even be overwhelming.  MOFAS works to provide statewide education and support for families and individuals affected by FASD so they not only survive, but thrive.
