National FASD Program: Social Return on Investment
In 2023, almost 90,000 children are estimated to have been born after exposure to the potentially harmful effects of alcohol during pregnancy.
In this report Impact Economics and Policy has estimated that the lifetime economic and social costs of exposure to alcohol during
pregnancy in Australia range between $2.7 billion and $6.4 billion per year.
Reducing the costs of alcohol harm during pregnancy requires improved access to diagnosis, increased awareness of the harms, and continued support for campaigns like the National FASD Program Campaign. This campaign has successfully improved awareness and reduced the number of pregnant persons consuming alcohol, leading to fewer cases of FASD, premature births, and other pregnancy-related complications.
