Sober Pregnancies
South Africa is considered to have the highest prevalence of FASD globally, impacting children of mothers who drank alcohol during pregnancy.
Connecting With Communities
Who we aim to reach
In this area of our work, Aware.org primarily focuses on pregnant women and children living with FASD. We also engage with healthcare professionals and caregivers, partners and families of pregnant women and community members.
To Create Lasting Impact
What we offer
Aware.org supports the work of the Foundation for Alcohol Related Research (FARR) in three provinces: Trompsburg (Free State), Graaf-Reinet (Eastern Cape) and Prince Albert (Western Cape). FARR has pioneered a successful FASD response that combines research, community awareness, preventive work with pregnant women, and education of other significant groups.
