WELCOME MESSAGE

Congratulations!  The Creator has given you a very special gift.  And now you can give your new baby the greatest gift a parent can give their child, and that is a healthy beginning!

Every day there are babies born to alcoholic mothers.  These babies suffer lifelong birth defects and complications because their mothers chose to drink alcohol while they were pregnant.  You can stop this trend and save our Nation.  You can help contribute to making our tribe a strong and healthy Nation again.  It’s your decision.  And FASD is 100% preventable; it doesn't have to happen.

There are a lot of women who are unable to be blessed with a pregnancy. And contrary to what many believe, drinking alcohol while pregnant is not normal! Tunkasila brought us into this world healthy; let's continue to give birth to healthy babies.

 

What is FASD?

 

 

Where can I go
