Each year in the United States, as many as 40,000 babies are born with FASD’s, the cost of
which amounts to approximately $6 billion a
year to U.S. tax payers.

Women with a dependency on alcohol are at high risk for drinking while pregnant and
delivering babies with FASD’s.

When an expecting mother drinks any kind of alcohol, her baby also drinks it
through her umbilical cord, which
can cause miscarriage,
stillbirth, and FASD’s when born.
