"Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked.
Or stand in the way that sinners take
Or sit in the company of mockers,
But whose delight is in the law of the LORD,
And who meditates on his law day and night.
That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,
Which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not witherâwhatever they do prospers."
-Psalm 1:1-3

And when they could not get near him because of the crowd, They removed the roof from above him, and when they had made an opening, they let down the bed on which the paralytic lay. And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, âSon, your sins are forgiven.â -Mark 2:1-5

September is FASD Awareness Month and our special guest today is JJ Dunham Reed. JJ is a strong coffee-drinking, homeschooling, Jesus-seeking mama. A happily married wife to a wonderful God-fearing man, a strong FASD Advocate creating FASD-informed resources and services in her community, and one of many primary care providing biological mothers of children with FASD. In 2021 she boldly stepped onto the stage of FASD Advocacy after years of knowing something was going on with one of her younger sons, there was confirmation of prenatal alcohol exposure and still, there were no answers, resources, or services to turn to. Finding this great deficit unacceptable, JJ founded Our Families Are FASDtastic Families: Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder(s) Education, Caregiver Peer Support & FASD Awareness Advocacy. JJ boldly stands up to stop the shame, blame, and stigmas associated with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders so that all families of individuals with an FASD can be confident in seeking wrap-around support and so that the support will be there when they need it most.
