Adams, Jerry; And Others
A set of two pamphlets is presented on the topic of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Alcohol-Related Birth Defects. "Ten Projects for Preventing Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Other Alcohol-Related Birth Defects" provides ideas and materials for students and others to use in educating the public about the dangers of alcohol use during pregnancy. It offers suggestions for developing a community prevention plan, establishing a speakers' bureau, and involving physicians. It also provides such sample materials as a fact sheet, posters, newspaper ads, press release, public service announcement, and survey form for a public opinion poll. "Have You Heard...About Alcohol and Pregnancy" is a cartoon booklet teaching prevention of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. It explores several common misconceptions about alcohol use during pregnancy, stresses the importance of the father's role in preventing alcohol abuse, offers suggestions for dealing with the peer pressure to drink, and includes a self-administered questionnaire to evaluate one's risk of parenting a child with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.
