Go red for FASD awareness this September
This September we’re encouraging Australians to wear red shoes or socks throughout the month, to spark conversations and create an understanding about this largely invisible and preventable disability.
Meet our Official Shoe Partner
We’ve partnered with ethical Australian shoe brand, TWOOBS as our official shoe partner to amplify the campaign across the country.
Rock your

Talking with family that you will be around over the holidays and helping them understand is important.

Creating a visual schedule for everyone to be able to see can be helpful.

Well, well, well, look who showed up in the NWR FASD Society`s office today!!
This is Evan, our Elf on the Shelf. Santa dropped him off to us with a big, beautiful tree that he`s going to help us decorate with FASD fact ornaments throughout the month of December!!🎄🎄🎄
Stay tuned to see where the ornaments show up and to learn more about FASD!🎁
(P.S. Santa told us that Evan is pretty sneaky so we`re keeping an extra close eye on him to make sure he doesn`t get himself into any trouble!)

We can see more successes and fewer challenges when we start accommodating individuals impacted by FASD.

When supporting individuals impacted by FASD, we need to be able to accommodate them where they are. This allows us to work with them to help them reach their full potential. Using accommodations can also reduce stress and anxiety levels for the individual and the caregiver.

Make it

From the Big Banana to Bolte Bridge, landmarks and institutions across Australia will light up red this September to raise awareness of FASD.
Check out landmarks lit up near you, take a selfie and share it with us, or on your social media!
Host an event in September 2024
FASD Awareness Month is an opportunity for you to get together with your community to talk about FASD, how to prevent it, and how to support people living with FASD.
Communities across Australia will be hosting events and getting together on 9 September, and throughout the month.
You can find a full calendar of community events, and also submit your own event on the NOFASD website.
Not sure what kind of event to host?
- Host a park walk or run, where everyone wears red shoes or socks
- Host a morning tea at work or with friends, featuring red food, and with guests wearing red
- Do you belong to a sporting team or club? Can you wear red for your games in September?
Remember, starting a conversation about FASD is our goal and we can help you with resources to spark conversation.
