BACKGROUND INFORMATION
How did The FASD Song come about?
“The FASD Song” was written by TB, a member of National FASD’s Adults and Young Adults with FASD Advisory Committee.
Writing this song was TB’s idea after he received the latest Me and My FASD Club pack.
He brought the pack to college to show his teachers and classmates.
When he came home, he spent hours in his bedroom writing the lyrics and the music.
Why did TB write the song?
He wants to use his music to help others with FASD.
Others added their voices to make it awesome
National FASD put out a call for others to help make this video awesome. A huge thank you to everyone who shared their videos and joined in the fun.
And of course, thank you to TB who inspired us with his song.
We hope you are inspired too.
At National FASD, we like it when people with FASD make some glorious noise.
