FASD Hope is a podcast about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), through the lens of parent advocates with over nineteen years of lived experience.
Episode 124 highlights “The FAS Project Netherlands” with Luke Schut (Project Coordinator) and Dami Munter (Foster Mother & Parent Advocate).
The FAS project is part of non-profit organization ‘Het Witte Bos’, which initiates transmedial projects on the cutting edge of journalism, art and society. The FAS-project started as a journalistic initiative, but eventually developed into a big, multimedia awareness campaign, showing the potentially dangerous consequences of alcohol consumption during pregnancy. By storytelling, the FAS Project raises attention to a relatively unknown problem in a personal way. The FAS-project started in 2013 and launched with the book FAS-kinderen (Children with FAS). The FAS-project will continue until at least 2025, under the name FAS2025. In the past years the project developed and gained a wider reach & more impact. FAS2025 tells the story of Isiah, Lorenzo, Marcella, Mila and Jasmijn, following their journey towards adulthood for ten years. Their stories are told by a collection of stories, portraits and mini-documentaries. To give children with FAS(D) a face, make FAS(D) less abstract and to tell what FAS(D) means to them and how it impacts their lives. The project also consists of expositions, books, a podcast, a college tour to inform future professionals about FAS, readings at professional organizations who (may) come in contact with FAS(D), and The Buddy Project. Almost all of the materials of The FAS Project are translated in English/have English subs. However, the podcast is in Dutch.
In Episode 124, Luke & Dami share: the history of The FAS Project, Dani’s journey as a foster mother learning about FASD, the many initiatives offered by The FAS Project, FASD in the Netherlands, an excerpt from the book “Children With FASD: An Insight Into Their Lives” by Allard de Witte and Joost Bos, and words of encouragement and hope.
