If more people knew about the dangers of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) then perhaps fewer children would be impacted by the condition.
That is what Battlefords Early Childhood Intervention Program (BECIP) hopes to see.
The non-profit organization held a free pancake breakfast for students at North West College in North Battleford Monday to mark International FASD Awareness Day, and observed a minute of silence to recognize those affected by the disorder.
“Today across the world on Sept. 9, the ninth month, the ninth hour, the ninth minute we recognize and remember those that are affected by Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder,” BECIP Executive Director Colleen Sabraw said.
