The Australian Government has established alcohol and drug information services in each state and territory, which people can contact for more information or advice about Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD).
A parliamentary inquiry into the prevalence and prevention of FASD is currently underway.
The National Indigenous Drug and Alcohol Committee released its position paper on FASD at a national conference held in Fremantle earlier this year. The committee is dedicated to representing Aboriginal people in alcohol and other drug policy.
The peak body NOFASARD also offers education, training and advocacy surrounding foetal alcohol spectrum disorder.
